How could i test OpenMP in CCS?

Is the EVM board mandatory or not?

I haven't EVM board, could i just test OpenMP via software simulator? do you have such kind of simulator?  If yes, where is the guide/manual?

BR&Thanks

  • Hi,

    Here are the steps to work on OpenMP:

  • Thank you very much!

    Yes, I read this document and it said:

    Version and HW Information

    This section was developed with CCS version 5.2.0.00069, MCSDK version 2.1.0.3, and executed on an C6678 EVM. If your environment differs, you may have to make a few adjustments.

    Does this mean the hardware  Evm board is mandatory?  I haven' t Evm on hand, then I can not run this OpenMP project, is it right? Do you have software simulator to support this project or not?

  • Xiang Hao,

    I was able to follow the procedure in the page Gautam sent and successfully run the OpenMP example in the C6678 simulator.

    However, I am using CCSv5.5.0.00077 and MCSDK 2.01.02.06 and the C6678 Device Functional Simulator, Little Endian.

    I also launched the simulator manually by going to menu View --> Target Configurations --> right-click on the target configuration and select Launch Selected Configuration. Then I selected the four cores (using Ctrl-left mouse click) and grouped them (with all four cores selected, right-click and select Group cores), so I could load and run the code easier.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

  • Great, thanks!
