DSP/BIOS Version Issue. How to "migrate" project?

The BIOS and compiler versions are stored as part of the project so this project would have originally been created with BIOS 5.40.02.22.  Moving from BIOS 5.40 to 5.41 is not a big deal, no real migration steps involved other than changing the BIOS version associated with the project.  Right click on your project and select build properties.  In the dialog that opens select CCS build settings on the left.  Now on the right hand side you should be able to change the version of BIOS set for the project.

John,

Thanks, but as the image above shows, I have already done this. To be more clear, below the entire CCS Build config window. Note the use of 5.41.02.14 DSP/BIOS. Could there be something in the orginal project file (EZDSP_AudioFilter.pjt) that was packaged with the sample project?

John,

To complicate matters, I have re-imported a "virgin" copy of the AudioFilterDemo. After building the project I get the following warning.

"This project was created using a version of DSP/BIOS tools that is not currently installed: 5.40.02.22. Please install the DSP/BIOS tools of this version, or migrate the project to one of the supported versions.  Audio_Filter_Demo Audio_Filter_Demo 1274809600856 12"

I attempt to rebuild with 5.41.02.14 and save using....

...and then get the following errog:

There is no "mirgration.log" file in the root of the project directory.

Can you explain?

I've just installed CCS 6 and was trying to import examples from c55_csl_3.04.zip (installed from TMS320C55XXCSL-LOWPWR-03.04.00.02-Setup.exe)

Majority of the examples have been imported but then compilation failed.

This project was created using a version of DSP/BIOS tools that is not currently installed: 5.41.10.36. Please install the DSP/BIOS tools of this version, or migrate the project to one of the supported versions.
Build stopped.

Please advise which settings / options might be wrong?

Victor - Do you have a version of DSP/BIOS installed and recognized by your CCSv6 installation? If so, CCS should try to use it. Note that CCSv6 does not come with DSP/BIOS by default (you can get it from the App Center)

Thanks

Ki, thank you for good hint.

I have installed bios_setupwin32_5_42_01_09 and I can see its directory under C:\ti

It is not shown in the project settings dialog. I don't have the 5.41.10.36 installed but it is shown.

Victor,

Does your project build now that you've installed DSP/BIOS?  Once DSP/BIOS is properly registered with CCS, it should appear in the Preferences > CCS > RTSC > Products page:

Baltasar,

Thank you, there is certain progress. The DSP/BIOS problem has been solved.

Compilation is OK now, but the linker fails - after I changed the device variant (under project - build settings - general) to EZDSP5535:

error: cannot find file "libc.a"
