CCS 6.1.1.00022: virtual drives are not found any more

Dear TI Team,


 I have updated from CCS 6.1.0.x to CCS 6.1.1.00022 and now virtual drivers created on Windows systems via the subst command are not supported/found by CCS any more.


Virtual drivers map a given path on a physical or logical drive. E.g. c:/blabla/user/tralala/ti can be mapped to u:/ to abstract away long quirky user specific paths.

This is a very huge regression impacting our development teams severely.

The following command is an example on how to create a virtual drive from a simple path ona  windows system:     subst u: c:\temp

Could you please confirm whether this is a single case issue or is this really a regression?

OS: Windows 7 64 bit

CCS: V6.1.1.00022 with all latest updates.

Thank you in advance for your kind support.

Best regards,

 Tamas

  • Hi Tamas,
    I have 6.1.1.00022 and virtual drives (created using the subst command) are detected by CCS . I am also using Windows 7-64. Do you not see the virtual drive in any context from CCS (trying to load a program, open a file, etc)?

    Thanks
    ki
  • Tamas,

    I was able to properly recognize the subst drive on my CCSv6.1.1.00022.

    In order to do so, I issued the subst command and from the same cmd prompt I started CCS. Check the screenshot below.

    I am running the same OS as you.

    Perhaps if you can think of any additional details that you are doing differently, perhaps I could try to do the same here.

    Regards,

    Rafael

  • Dear Ki and Rafael,

    it seems after a complete system restart CCS works again as expected. I do not know what could have caused the issue. I am using eclipse Luna as well which was working even while CCS had the issue after its update and I restarted CCS several times yesterday after the update, but that did not help...

    Any ways, my problem is gone and I am happy :)
