CCS/msp430g2453: MSP430G2453

Hello

I'm trying to generate an HEX file in CCS. When I select the TI format, I see the selection displayed for 1 second then it fades away.

Any one knows why or what I need to do so it will keep the selection?

Thank you

Yuval

    Yuval,

    I am guessing you are using CCSv5 (as that is the last version where we had pre-defined post-build steps for creating TI-TXT files). Is that so? 
    I'm not sure why the selection will not stay and I have not heard of this issue before. However I can say that CCSv5 is pretty old and would suggest upgrading to a newer versions of CCS, which also has a built-in integration with the hex utility. 

    So here are couple of options:
    1) update to newer CCS and enable the TI-TXT output format and other options via the integrated hex utility or
    2) if you have to stay with CCSv5, try entering the command manually in the Post-build Steps command box: 
    "${CG_TOOL_HEX}" --ti_txt "${BuildArtifactFileName}" -o "${BuildArtifactFileBaseName}.txt" -order MS -romwidth 16

    Hello 

    I'm using CCS7.1. I downloaded the updated. Still, it doesn't work.

    I'm thinking downgrading to previous versions.

    Yuval,

    Can you attach a screenshot of what you are seeing (where you are making the hex output format selection that fades away)?

    Since I haven’t heard back from you, I’m assuming you were able to resolve this issue and will be closing this thread. If the issue is not resolved, just post a reply below or create a new thread. Thanks!
