Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,
      I am working on TMSF320F240 DSP with CCS4.10.36 version, for automation testing i use to write GEL scripts in which i would like to use
" GEL_HWBreakPtAdd" API, seems CCS4.10.36 version doesn't support this feature. Please help me to specify any alternative way to automate Hardware Breakpoint setting.

Thanks for your support.

    Subramanyam,

    I think you must be using Code Composer v4.10 vs Code Composer Studio as Code Composer Studio v4.1 didn't support F24x. The most recent version that supported F24x was Code Composer Studio v3.3.83.19. I just installed that version and the GEL_HWBreakPtAdd() API was supported. I tried it on a F28x device as I don't have a F24x.

    If you would like to try Code Composer Studio v3.3 I can send you a private message with a link.

    Regards,
    John

    Often these types of requirements specifically relate to the build environment.  Is that the case here?  If so, you could continue to build using the specified version of Code Composer.  You could then debug using CCS v3.3 as John suggested.  That way you would have the gel functions you need.  The Code Composer version you mentioned is in the neighborhood of 15 years old, so we're not planning any enhancements.

    Thanks Brad Griffis. One query, does CCS 4.10.36 version supports on Win7 (32 bit) environment?.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Code Composer 4.10 was released many years prior to Windows 7 and thus is not officially supported. I have installed some older versions such as this on Windows 7, I believe I had to run the installer in compatibility mode for XP to get it to install. You will get some error messages regarding driver installations. Those can be ignored.

    Personally, I have never been successful in getting the old CC to work with anything more recent than Windows XP. I would strongly recommend running on a PC with Windows XP or at least a Windows XP VM.
