CCS Studio error message

Hello,

I am running the software I've wrote, and keep getting an error message even when running step by step, after every step:

 AET Error: Bad jobID passed to GetTimerValue.
AET Error: Bad jobID passed to GetTimerValue.
AET Error: Bad jobID passed to GetTimerValue.
AET Error: Bad jobID passed to GetTimerValue.
AET Error: Bad jobID passed to GetTimerValue.

I dont see any real disfunctionality in program, but still this message worries me. What can cause this?

Regards

Arye

  • Much more information will be needed to be able to offer any real help, like the target DSP, the versions of CCS and BIOS, etc.

    Advanced Event Triggering seems to be unhappy with something that is configured in your CCS debugger. There could be an installation problem or a GEL setting that enabled something in AET without your knowledge. Or are you using AET and may have configured it wrong?

    Can you take a previous project and load/run without these messages?

  • Arye,

    I assume that you are programming AET via the CCS Plugin.  Does this happen every time you execute the code (i.e. if you close CCS, power cycle your target and start the whole process over does it happen the same way each time?)

    Are you viewing an AET Timer/Counter in the watch window or some other window?

    I believe what is happening is every time you do a single step, CCS makes a call to refresh any visible windows.  And it seems that it's trying to call a function called GetTimerValue, where one of the parameters is a Job ID, and the receiveing function isn't liking the value it received.  Perhaps, CCS got into some state where the timer is trying to be refreshed after the job that it was associated with was deleted.

    If you're not trying to use this AET Timer/Counter, then you can probably ignore the error, it shouldn't affect your code.  But if you are encountering this every time, please provide steps for us to reproduce as it's likely a CCS bug. 

    Can you provide the following?

    • CCS version  (with Service Releases/Patches)
    • Emulator Type
    • Target Type.

    Thanks,

  • Hi,

    I am using CCS Studio v3.3.81.11, bios 5.33.01, code generation tools v6.1.5.

    Device is OMAPL137, board is spectrum digital OMAPL137EVM (starter kit) rev B.

    I noticed that the Main menu->Profile->clock caused this. I was not able to disable it, so I restarted the CCS and the problem disapeared.

    Thank You both!

    P.S.  Can it be amismatch with the versions of SW/HW that I am using, because the CCS get stuck in average 1-2 times per day?
