Additional Clean Command

Matthew Hudghton

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CODECOMPOSER, CCSTUDIO

Hi,

I'm using CodeComposer  6.1.1.
I've been trying to add a simple rmdir command to my clean command. At the moment my clean command uses the standard gmake clean target.

I would like to still do gmake clean, but also remove an additional externally generated directory, how do i do this.
I tried addingWhat I'v

what i've tried already: 

adding:

-I my/folder/path clean_external" 

to my clean ccommand,  then including a makefile at "my/folder/path that had the target clean_external , but gmake just gave me the error that it couldn't find the make target.

am i close? any ideas?

Thanks

Matt

    Matt,

    The auto-generated makefile for a Managed CCS build contains this line at the end of the file:
    -include ../makefile.targets


    By default this is not used by the TI build environment, but you could create a makefile.targets that contains rules for additional make targets and place the file in the top-level folder of the project. This wiki section touches a bit on this subject.

    For example, I created a makefile.targets file containing this:

    myclean:
    -$(RM) "main.asm"
    -@echo 'Finished my custom clean


    I then modified the Build->Behavior tab in CCS to add "myclean" in addition to the default clean.


    Now when I select "Clean Project", I see the following output in the CCS console which confirms that is performing the default clean as well as the custom myclean rule.

    **** Clean-only build of configuration Debug for project test_f28377D ****

    "C:\\CCStudio_v6.1.1.00022\\ccsv6\\utils\\bin\\gmake" -k clean myclean
    DEL /F "test_f28377D.out" "test_f28377D.hex"
    DEL /F "main.pp"
    DEL /F "main.obj"
    'Finished clean'
    ' '
    DEL /F "main.asm"

    'Finished my custom clean'


    Can you try something similar and let us know if it works?

    This worked great for me Aarti.
    I was able to use it to run the TMS570 HET assembler to build the HET code needed for a main ARM project.
    Worked great. Thank you for the tip!

    Good to know Anthony, and thanks for the feedback! Now I will add this information to a wiki page as well.
