Declare variable globally in CCS6.0

Yuva raj

Dear sir;

I want to put a global variable in the header file by declare it as an "extern" variable. Since it is a variable, many source files are using it, so I include the .h (header file) in each source file where the global being used. But while i compiling it shows #1965 cannot open source file "xxxxx.h". I am using CCS6.0, how to solve this.....????????????

I am using TM4C123 micro controller.

With Regards

HI Yuva,

Try add that .h file at your CCS Project. You can do that by right clicking your CCS project and then choose add file.

That particular source file Down_time_cal.c is linked to the project, hence its physical location is not inside the project directory. In order for the compiler to find the header file, the path to the header file should be specified in its Compiler Include Options (Project Properties->Build->Compiler->Include Options).

Please also check this short video.
