CCS6 - Import failed because its meta-data cannot be interpreted

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430FR2033

Hi Guy,


I'm trying to import a project from a colleague here. After downloading all files (we use Subversion) and import CCS project, it says:

"Import failed for project 'xxx' because its meta-data cannot be interpreted"

I tried reinstalling CCS V6.0.1 and moving the workspace to a couple of different places in case there is a linked resource problem, but no change. The machines is running windows7 32 bit. The other guy here has 64 bit windows, but that shouldn't make any difference.

The target is MSP430FR2033 which is very new, perhaps something to do with that as it is relatively unproven?

Stumped,

Rob.

    Hello Rob,

    Import of metadata would mean that either the version is too old, or from a new CCS build. Since you are using CCSv6.0.1.40 typically it would mean that the original version of the project is too old.

    Rob,

    What do you see if you try to create a new project for the device you mentioned? If you see the same thing as I do (below), you are right: the support for this device is not present in your current installation.

    In this case, you can try to check if there are any updates to the TI MSP430 Device Support component of CCS that enables this support. For details on updating CCS, check: this page.

    (edit) I just installed release 6.0.1.7 of the TI MSP430 Device Support and the device is shown this time.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

    Hi Amit,
    We are using CCS 6.0.1.00040 installed from the same installer file off a network. Unless there was some update done in the background on the other machine, the CCS version should be the same.

    Hi Rafael,
    The 6.0.1 version supports the new "430FRxxxx" devices.
    I will try starting a complely new project and just import the source files...
