CCSv4 Command line configuration fails due to Java upgrade from ver 1.6.0_16 to 1.6.0_45

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28335, CCSTUDIO

I am using an active perl script to configure CCSv4 (Version: 4.1.2.00027).  Recently the version of Java on my Windows 7 PC was upgraded from 1.6.0_16 to 1.6.0_45.  This has caused the configuration script to fail.  With Java 1.6.0_16 the configuration command and error are as follows:

java -jar C:\PROGRA~1\TEXASI~1\ccsv4\eclipse\startup.jar -ccs.cgtVersion 5.2.3
-ccs.device TMS320C28XX.TMS320F28335

Creating project 'CM5190_33.00.01.00_C2BLv4a'...

  !ERROR: No code-generation tools are currently installed for ISA family 'C2000'!

With Java 1.6.0_45 installed the same configuration command was successful:

Creating project 'CM5190_33.00.01.00_C2BLv4a'...

Done!

Our IT rules do not allow CCS to be updated from the ti web site, rather we would have to reinstall an updated version of CCS.  The process to do this is rather arduous. 

Is there a patch or updated version of CCSv4 that is compatible with Java 1.6.0_45?

Also we are in the process of migrating to CCSv5.  I have a installation disk for v5.2 (Windows & Linix).  Do you expect this installation will have the same problem with Java 1.6.0_45?

    This is a really old version of CCS... even for CCSv4 standards. Sounds like your IT dept makes it tough to update but I really recommend you trying a newer version. The old versions of v4 had a lot of bugs - including a bunch in the command-line build area. It also had various issues with JRE compatibility.

    I strongly suggest you continue on with your v5 migration and try things there. v5 is leaps and bounds better than v4. And I'd start with CCSv5.4.

    If you must stay on CCSv4, at least move to 4.2.5.

    Thanks
