Code Generation Tool 7.0.3 not shown up in Component Manager

Hi,

I had updated my Code Generation Tools to version 7.0.3 recently. However, it does not show up in the Component Manager->Build Tools. I had ensured that I installed it properly without any error messages. 

Thanks.

  • Chee-Bang,

    Sometimes the Build Tool Interface (BTI) is not properly registered in the windows registry. Are you sure you ran the installer with admin privileges?

    If so, then try to register the BTI manually by opening a Command Prompt window and issuing the command:

    regsvr32 <path_to_cgt_install>\bin\bti6000.dll

    The last resource would be reinstall the compiler.

    If using a windows version other than XP, keep in mind there may be other details to take into consideration:

    Hope this helps,

  • Hi Rafael,

    I followed your suggestion to use the regsvr32 to register the .dll. Component Manager shows it as a blank option (see attached picture). I tried selecting it, CCS complained 'std.h' not found. I guess, the registration is not working at all.

    One more related topic. How could I remove unwanted options in the list of selection, say this blank '<>' entry. I tried using "regsvr32 /u" could not remove it.

    Thank you.

  • Something may have gone wrong during you installation. You may want to uninstall 7.0.3 and then reinstall it again. You should have a valid entry in component manager, instead of a blank description.

    You need to remove the associated registry entries. There is an executable called 'RemoveRegistryKeys.exe' in the folder of where you installed the CGT. However, removing the registry keys will prevent you from selecting that CGT in component manager (and using it from within the CCS IDE).

    Thanks
