CCSv6.1.1 (C2000 Compiler v6.2.11): Why are *.pp (--preproc_only) files being put in my project's source directory?

Hello,

At first I thought compiler's--preproc_only option was not working since the *.pp files were not being put in the build directory.

However, after doing a search of the project's directory, I found the *.pp files in the source directories.

Shouldn't the *.pp files be placed in the build directory?

By default, a preprocessed file is placed in same directory as the corresponding source file. You can choose a different directory with the build option --pp_directory. When CCS initially configures your project, the option --pp_directory is not set.

Thanks and regards,

Are there any plans to allow the --pp_directory to be entered in the "Parser Preprocessing Otions" dialog box?

It is available in CCS 6.1. See the last option in the screen shot below.

Thanks and regards,
