Problem for "Project -> Open" is disabled?

Hi,

I'm using CCS 3.1 with F2808 eZdsp demo board. Somehow the CCS is no longer to open any project. The items under Project menu are disabled. The connection between CCS and the demo board is still function. Is any suggestion to fix this problem or I have to reinstall the CCS?

Thanks,

SM

  • One thing to check is open the Component Manager (You can do this from your "Start" menu and then look under "Texas Instruments->Code Composer Studio->Component Manager") and expand the node for Code Composer Studio->Texas Instruments Inc. and see if the Project Management component is enabled and picking up the correct one (from the CCS 3.1 installation directory).

    If this is ok, you may then want to explicitly register the project manager componentment:

    regsvr32 <CCS Install Dir>\cc\bin\projsvr.dll

    Thanks

  • I opened the "CCS Component Manager", but it is completely empty and no any node listed.

    What is  "register the project manager componen" and how to do it?

    Thanks,

  • Hmm... that is not a good sign. If the contents are blank, it means you ccs_Compdb.ini file has been corrupted.

    You can try to use one of the backup files in hopes that those are ok. The ini files are stored in:

    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Texas Instruments

    First back up this folder and then try to rename one of the files with a *.bak extension to ccs_Compdb.ini

    If your *.bak files are not corrupted, this can revert CCS back to a good state.

    Good luck!
