Debugging with CCS5

Have you run the setup.sh script? The .gdbinit file gets generated as a part of that process.

The arm-linux-gnueabihf-* files are located in the /home/user/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-06.00.00.00/linux-devkit/sysroots/i686-arago-linux/usr/bin/ directory. Check to ensure that you are pointing CCS to the correct location for it.

Dear Tim

thanks for your answer. I ran the setup.sh on Ubuntu 12.04 and Red-Hat 6.4. In either case: 

1. The file has not been generated.

2. Actual folders  structure/organization is not as described in the documentation.

Best regards,

Yehdua

Did it finish successfully? How does your SDK structure differ from the documentation?

Dear Tim

Thanks for the Email. It seems that it works correctly.

Folders organization is: 

[Yehuda.Singer@Yehuda-LInux linux-devkit]$ pwd
/usr/local/bin/ti/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.05.00.00/linux-devkit
[Yehuda.Singer@Yehuda-LInux linux-devkit]$ ls
arm-arago-linux-gnueabi  etc         lib      README       usr
bin                      i686-linux  libexec  share        version
environment-setup        include     mkspecs  site-config
[Yehuda.Singer@Yehuda-LInux linux-devkit]$ 

There is not folder sysroot...

Yehuda

The 5.x SDKs use the Arago toolchain whereas SDK 6.0 uses the Linaro toolchain. This is located in a different directory with a different prefix.

The toolchain you are looking for can be found in /usr/local/bin/ti/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.05.00.00/linux-devkit/bin/arm-arago-linux-gnueabi-

Dear Tim

thanks. 

You are right. Now, I found the path. 

I do not see the files: gdbinit etc.

The CCS is directed to this folder

Yehuda

.gdbinit is a hidden file (as denoted by the preceding period) located in the root of the SDK (i.e. /usr/local/bin/ti/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.05.00.00/). You need to do a list of ALL files to see it (try ls -la).

Dear Tim

This is the file structure:

[Yehuda.Singer@Yehuda-LInux ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.05.00.00]$ pwd
/usr/local/bin/ti/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.05.00.00

The settup.sh give an error message: Machine not supported.

Yehuda

Sorry, I forgot that you were trying to do this on Red Hat as well. We do all of our testing in Ubuntu (12.04 LTS). There is a way to modify the setup.sh script to work outside of an Ubuntu setup, but as we have not tested it we do not know that everything will function correctly.

Do you have a need to use Red Hat? If not I suggest sticking with Ubuntu instead.

Dear Tim

Thanks.

The error message says that it supports Ubuntu 10.04.

Besides that, we need the Red-Hat for other projects.

Best regards,

Yehuda

Dr. Singer, Ubuntu 10.04 should be fine as well. We used to use 10.04 as our primary host OS, but moved to 12.04 not too long ago.

Dear Tim

thanks for your answer. 

Here are my questions

1. Is there an updated version of this script?

2. Why the script can not work on Red-Hat? 

Yehuda

Dear Lisa

I do not see why to restrict the Host Oses. More precisely: Ubuntu and Red-Hat use the same kernel etc.

all you have to do is to omit redundant checks.

Best regards,

Yehuda
