When I post an example project as a zip file, what can I do to make it as easy as possible for someone else to use that project folder on their CCSv4 installation?
I have tried zipping up the whole project folder, deleting the old project+files from my workspace, then unzipping the same contents back. But the project does not show up in my workspace's C/C++ Projects list, even after closing and re-opening CCS.
The only method I have found to work is:
- In Windows Explorer, delete all files from the project MyProj except the source files (I only have three source files, .c, .asm, .tcf)
- Zip that project folder to MyProj.zip
- In CCS, delete the project MyProj - now the workspace is like another user's would be
- Unzip the source files into a folder named MyProj under the workspace
- In CCS, create a new project named MyProj and make it be an empty DSP/BIOS project
- Now the project exists and the source files are still there
This allows me to port the source files, but I would like to avoid the user having to do the multi-step steps 5 and 6.
Any suggestions on an easy way to zip up a folder and transfer it to another user?
