CCS5.5.0: Trouble importing CCS5.x project

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28035

Hi,

I am having trouble importing an existing CCS project for TMS320F28035 in CCS5.5.0.00077

I have previously used the project under some version of CCS5 (not sure exactly which one it worked properly on the last time it did work). I have seen similar posts regarding other CCS5 versions, but I haven't found any answer that solved my problem this far.

Please see my attached project meta files and screen shot of the error message below.

  • Hi Johan,

    I find it odd that you only have 3 files ?  This is actually not normal for a ccs project and is probably why you are having issues.  I got the same error.

    Do you have any visibility to the original project, how you tried to export or access it for import to v5.5?

    Best Regards,
    Lisa

  • Hi Lisa,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I checked all three computers on which I have this project available. On one of them there is also a .settings folder. I am enclosing the corresponding package from that machine. Apart from the enclosed files there is also two .cmd-files (one for release and one for debug) which I'm afraid I can't share. At least not publicly on the forum.

    I am absolutely positive that this project has been used on at least one of these machines during the last few months with the same local files that are on the disk right now. The only thing that we have actually changed is that all machines are now running CCS5.5. Previously at least one of them was running 5.3. The CCS5.5 install was done as a clean install from scratch after some hickups in the update process.

    Unfortunately we don't have any installations of earlier versions left at this point. We updated all workstations after I found a scary CCS-related bug in another project. Otherwise I would already have tried to do an export/import.

    Which files apart from the ones I have enclosed or mentioned should normally be in the project directory?

    Before starting this thread, I found an old one about similar issue that I tried posting a reply to, but didn't get any answer. That user had a corrupted cproject file.http://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/p/296205/1103850.aspx

  • Hi Johan,

    just to give you a bit of an update.  I am waiting to see if I can get your project looked at by a development colleague here.

    Best Regards,

  • That's great Lisa, thank you for the update. Looking forward to see what your people can come up with.

  • Hi Johan,

    Your .cproject file has become slightly corrupted as a result of a bug in earlier builds of CCS v5.  That corruption bug has been fixed in CCS v5.5, but it doesn't fix the already affected projects.  

    I've attached a fixed version of your .cproject file (renamed, to bypass the filters).  All i did was comment out one of the <folderInfo> elements.  I've kept the commented out <folderInfo> element there, but you can delete it.  All that <folderInfo> element did was set the --no_warnings flag to 'true' on the "rubus" folder.  If you need to, you can re-set that flag on that same folder, provided you use CCS v5.5 to do that (otherwise you'll be affected by the same bug again).

    Thanks,

    - Baltasar

  • Hi Baltasar,

    That is brilliant! It's such a relief that the project is working fine again.

    Thank you so much!
