In code composer studio i get an error "This project was created using a version of Code Generation tools that is not currently installed: 3.1.0 [MSP430]."

Please help me to resolve this problem

This project was created using a version of Code Generation tools that is not currently installed: 3.1.0 [MSP430]. Please install the Code Generation tools of this version, or migrate the project to one of the supported versions.  MSP-EXP430F5438_User_Experience properties 1419411811626 469

  • A CCS project records, among many other details, the version of the compiler used to build it.  When you import a project into CCS, it attempts to use the same version of the compiler.  If that compiler version is not available, you see this message.  It is often good to know that the project was tested with a different version of the compiler.

    As to your particular case ... Version 3.1.0 is about 6 years old.  A lot has changed in the compiler in that time.  Your chances of compiler issues, while still low, are higher than usual.  To get a sense of that please see this wiki article.

    I recommend you use a recent version of the compiler and just deal with any issues that arise.  All things considered, I think that is your best approach.

    Thanks and regards,
