Install compiler ARM TIv5.0.1



Hi,

I have Code Composer 5.4 currently installed. and it runs fine.  I am starting a new development activity and am looking into using the TI Hercules MCU and have the SafeTI HSK.  It has a copy of Code Composer that came with it, 5.3.

 

I want to use my existing Code Composer installation, I don't see why I would need two.  However, I need to use the ARM TIv5.0.1 compiler, which I don't have installed.  I can't find where I can install this from and then get my CCS 5.4 install to recognize it.

 

Thanks,

David

  • Hi,

    I have tried following the instructions, but Code Composer 5.4 does not recognize the compiler.

     

    I ended up with two installs, CCS 5.3 and 5.4 .  The CCS 5.3 install recognizes the compiler is installed.  When I add the same path to the 5.4 install and try to refresh the list, it has no affect.

     

    Is there a link that I can have to download the ARM TI v5.0.1 compiler to install in a specific location and try that?

    Thanks,

    David

    My 5.4 installation shows that I have ARM compilers installed (I installed them through Help->Install new software), but they don't show in the list:

  • Your screenshot for 5.4 is odd. I would suspect that you just installed the C6000 components of CCS. Is this true?

  • In 5.4  I had previously installed C6000 components and it works fine.  I am trying to use a new chip now, and require a the ARM TIv5.0.0 (or higher) compiler, so I am trying to get that installed and recognized.

    I tried installing it through the help->install new software menu, but have not gotten it to work.

  • You need to install ARM support for CCS. If your CCSv5.4 is a clean install (you didn't incrementally update it from a previous version), you can try "repairing your install" and then selecting the option to add new components. If it is an updated version, unfortunately that will not work and you will need to do a clean new install with all the components you need (In that case, i'd grab CCSv5.5 and go with that)

    I forget to tell you how to do this. You can do this my re-running the 5.4 installer and selecting the existing 5.4 installation directory so it can detect the existing install.

  • Although I had a clean 5.4 installation, I was unable to add new components through a repair.  After an uninstall / reinstall, it is working properly.

    Thanks,
