How to show all the optimization level for each source file in my Project View Window?

HI,

   I am now using CCSv5.5.0.00077 in Win7.  In order to profile the performance of my algorithm in C674x DSP, I employed the TI C674x CPU Cycle Accurate Simulator.

   I find that the TI C6000 compiler greatly improves the performance of my algorithm while the -o3 optimization option was selected.  However, the O3-optimized program would occationally post some error data; and the project with an -o2 optimized option works much stably.  Thus, I am going to trace where the bug is.

    As far as I know, I could set different optimization level for different source files in my project.  However, since there are several source files in this project, I am not quite sure whether the optimation level for each source file is accurately set.    Is there any way for me to view all of the optimization level for each source file at the same time in my Project View Window?   It is tedious and frustrating to double-check them with opening Properties Windows again and again.

  • Hi Naroah,

    Unless a file has file specific options, it will always use the options defined at the project level.

    So how can you check if a file has file specific options? By looking at the file in the project explorer view. If it has file specific options, the file icon will have a little "key" icon in the upper right corner.

    If the file has file specific options, you can check the file properties and look at the optimization options. If that option is a file specific option, it will be highlighted in bold.

    Thanks

  • Hi, Ki

        Thank you for your reply!  That's what I needed.  I do know how to check the Opt level in Properties View, but I have never noticed the small "stamp/(key)" above the icon!
