CCS/LINUXEZSDK-SITARA: CCS v7 command line clean build isn't working

Thanks for your quick response!

Yes, the project was already imported into the workspace. Here is the full command line and output from CCS:

$CCS_ECLIPSE/eclipse -noSplash -data workspace_v7/ -application com.ti.ccstudio.apps.projectBuild -ccs.projects alice_m4 –ccs.buildType clean

And here is the ouptu without the -ccs.buildType clean option:

Here is an abbreviated output from the clean from within CCS:

**** Clean-only build of configuration Debug for project alice_m4 ****
