Check For Updates does get current C2000 compiler version

Hello,

Check for Updates is not getting the C2000 compiler version, i.e. 6.4.1 (released on Dec 9,2014 as shown at

http://software-dl.ti.com/codegen/non-esd/downloads/download.htm

).  I am using the sites list found at http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Troubleshooting_CCSv6#Update_features.

  • Updates are found depending on the version of C2000 compiler on your machine - if the current compiler version is 6.3.x, 6.4.1 will not show up as an update, it's a new version.

    You can install it this way:
    Go to Help-> Install new software.
    Select the Code generation tools update link from the drop down list.
    Select the 6.4.1 compiler for C2000.

  • Hello Danishinnis,

    I have both compiler versions 6.2.10 and 6.4.0 installed on my computer.  Also, CCSv6 preferences has http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_ccstudio/codegen/Updates/p2win32/ as an available software site, so why is check for updates not finding ccompiler version 6.4.1?

  • You're right, the update should show up if you have 6.4.0 installed on your machine. I'm not sure why it isn't showing up as an update. Can you double check that the feature's installed by going to Help->about->installation details->Installed Software? You should see com.ti.cgt.c2000.6.4.win32.feature.group in the list.

    I think the fastest way to get it installed is by following the instructions above. Debugging this might take a while since I don't have access to your set up.
  • Hello Danish,

    I have already installed 6.4.1 using the "Install New Software" procedure you previously mentioned, so 6.4.1 and 6.2.10 now show up in installed software.  6.4.0 was already installed on my computer before, but I am not sure if it was in the installed software list (i.e. Help->about->installation details->Installed Software).  However, I expected it should have been.  It is possible I installed 6.4.0 by downloading it from 

    http://software-dl.ti.com/codegen/non-esd/downloads/download.htm

    .  There shouldn't be an issue with doing it that way, and I think check for updates should at least give me the option of installing the newest compiler version whether or not I have the previous version installed on my computer.
