Currently am using simulator mode to test my codeset in CCS v5.5 -

I have created a CCS project , now how to import the external makefile code into the created CCS project ?

Are you asking if you can combine two different kinds of projects, a CCS project and external makefile project? That is not possible, but if you already have an external makefile you are using for build, you can create a Makefile project in CCS that uses that makefile instead of the one that CCS auto-generates.

If on the other hand, you are looking to simply import the code, you can do that with a CCS project and let CCS auto-generate the makefile to use for the project build.

Thanks Aarti ,

As u suggested - Am trying to import the external code into the CCS project created and get a CCS generated makefile for project build.

But whenever from project explorer> Rightclick on CCS project > Import > Directory to existing C++ project ::

It is opening as a separate C++ makefile project and not as part of the CCS project created .

Is it the correct procedure for code import into the CCS project ?

Got it -

# from project explorer> Rightclick on CCS project > Import > General >Existing project into workspace

loads the external source code into the created CCS project .

Since am a Beginner - sorry for my simple questions.

So it sounds like you were able to get the source code imported ok. If you have further issues down the road, please feel free to start a new post.
