Problem: When I attempt to import an existing project (created in CCS 5) to my current workspace (Recently Updated CCS 5.5) I get the following error:
An internal error occurred during: "C/C++ Indexer". java.lang.NullPointerException
My coworker was able to import the project no problem into CCS 5.2, so I tried doing a clean install of 5.2 on my PC, but still ran into the same issue (I performed another clean install back to 5.5 afterwards). We are both running Windows 7 SP1 and our computers are almost identical in terms of hardware, so I figured there must be something about my CCS install that is giving me trouble.
I noticed on the forums that other people have had similar problems when trying to import their projects, but I did not see anyone with this indexer error when attempting to import an existing CCS5 project (I think there was a similar one where they were attempting to import a CCS4 project, but it did not get resolved completely) so I figured I would post here and see if anyone has a solution.
My exact CCS Version is: 5.5.0.00077, and this project was developed for a Piccolo TMS320F28067 DSP.
I am attaching screenshots of the error as it occurs, as well as my indexer settings. I have a zip file of my install_logs directory, but I am not exactly sure how to attach it to this post.
Please let me know if there are any other files or pieces of information I can provide to help finding a solution. As long as they don't contain any proprietary information, I will be happy to share them.
Gautam,
Thanks for the response. I went in and deleted the .launches and .settings folders, but the import still fails with the same error.
I tried again a second time where I also deleted the .metadata folder in the workspace and cleared my computer's Java cache and temporary files, still getting the same error.
Best,
Carl
Have you already tried cleaning your workspace or importing the project into a new workspace?

If that does not help, could you please zip up all your CCS project files (.*project) and attach them here?
I just tried deleting the .settings, .launches, and .metadata folders, as well as starting CCS with the -clean argument, and still had the same error.
I zipped up the .project files and will attach them here, let me know if there are any issues with the attachment.cp1xProjectFiles.zip
Hi Carl,
The .cproject metadata file, in the root of your project, seems to be slightly corrupted. It is possible that this file has been manually edited at some point. It is missing the <builder>/"parallelizationNumber" attribute in several places, and sets that same attribute to an invalid value (-1) in one place. I have corrected the .cproject file, and i'm attaching it here (I had to rename the file to cproject.txt to bypass the upload filter). I've set "parallelizationNumber" to "optimal". That allows the project to be imported into CCS v5.5.0.
