CCS/CC3100BOOST: Getting Started with P2P - "Missing separator" error running CCS debug session (Windows 10)

Part Number: CC3100BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3100

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi all,

I have the P2P example nearly working with my CC3100's and MSP40FR5969's.

Every time I compile the program it gives a "missing separator"  error in the spi.d file in the Debug folder. I have found a fix for this, here:

https://e2e.ti.com/support/wireless_connectivity/simplelink_wifi_cc31xx_cc32xx/f/968/p/516526/1964349#1964349

Is there a way to fix this without having to remove the spaces from the file after every compilation?

Thanks in advance,

Ciaran

    Hi Ciaran,

    What version of CCS, MSP430 compiler, and CC3100 SDK version are you using?

    I was able to compile the p2p example from the CC3100 SDK v1.2 on CCS v6.2 with the most recent MSP430 compiler v16.12.0.STS without any issues or changes.

    Best regards,
    Sarah

    Hi Sarah,

    I'm using CCS version 6.1.3, CC3100 SKD version 1.2 and a stupidly out of date MSP430 compiler version 4.3.1.
    Currently updating to the compiler v16.12.

    Thanks for the help :)

    Hi Sarah,

    I can now compile the example but the error seems to happen when I start to debug the design. I'll then get the missing separator error, if I change the spi.d file then I can download it to the board. But I have to alter this file after every compile and before every debug session.

    Thanks again,
    Ciaran

    Hi Ciaran,

    Unfortunately, I'm not seeing the same issue on my setup. I would suggest upgrading to the most recent CCS version, as it may be a debugger error. You should also be sure that the most recent service pack is on the CC3100. You can also download a clean version of the SDK in case your version has been corrupted somehow.

    Best regards,
    Sarah

    Hi Sarah,

    I have downloaded the latest CCS v7.0 and the sdk for the CC3100. I am still getting the same behavior. Would you be able to send me your exact set up just encase I messing something up. Out of interest could this be a windows 10 issue?

    I'm lost for ideas on this one!

    Thanks,
    Ciaran

    Hi Ciaran,

    I've run this on both CCS v6.2 and v7.0, with CC3100 SDK v1.2 and the most recent service pack, and TI v16.9.0.LTS compiler. I am on a Windows 7 machine.

    This does sound like a continuing compiler/CCS debugger issue, so I'm going to move this post over to their forum so you get a faster answer.

    Best regards,
    Sarah
