No GNU based A8/A15 SYSBIOS project creation possible using "Variant" TI814x [Cortex A]

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Hi Guys,

Still I can't create a A8/A15 SYSBIOS project selecting the variant TI814x [Cortex A]. The procedure is to initially create a TI compiler project at CCS menu > Project >New CCS Project. I'll allow you to select a SYSBIOS template "e.g. Minimal". After the TI compiler can be replaced with GNU compiler. However, doing this will delete the RTSC tab and the project can't be built.

Using the variant EVMDM8148 will not delete the RTSC tab on Properties > General. Attached you can find the two GUIs for project creation.

Can this be fixed?

Thanks,

Thorsten

    By the way this is CCS Version: 5.5.0.00077 / xdc 3.25.3.72 / SYSBIOS 6.35.4.50.

    Thorsten,

    I was able to create a project for TI814x for A8 on my CCS with the exact same components as you. However, instead of creating a project using the TI compiler and then moving to use Linaro, I simply created it directly.

    - Menu File --> New --> CCS Project
    - Selected the Device as TI814x [Cortex A]
    - Expanded Advanced settings and selected GNU v4.7.3 in the Compiler version drop-down menu
    - Expanded Project templates and examples and selected SYSBIOS --> GNU Target Examples --> Typical
    - Clicked Next. In this screen, the Target is already pre-populated with gnu.targets.arm.A8F.
    - I selected the Platform as ti.platforms.evmTI814X.
    - Clicked Finish and built the project with no errors.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

    Hi Rafael,

    You are right. Your method works even on my machine.

    Any idea to create a project for A15 appliing same method? Or do I have to start from existing A8 project?

    Thanks,

    Thorsten

    Thorsten,

    A15 project generation is not supported in CCSv5 directly (you would have to select A8 and then change the options after).  It is in CCSv6 but there are still some kinks being worked out.

    Regards,
