CCS/AM5728: CCS 7.4 resource explorer not finding any resource , even if SDK installed

Part Number: AM5728
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi eveybody ,

please I in windows system  . and I have a AM5728IDK  so I need  the rtos SDK to be used .

now I am using latest CCS7.4 on web nd latest processor IDK  Rtos  on web .

Installed  both tools in C:\ti    , fisrt CCS and then the processor SDK   -> standard installation 

now  on one PC everything is perfect , on another   ( exactly same steps ) I cannot  find  the RESOURCE EXPLORE in VIEW ( I can only see the CLASSIC option ) but what is worse  I cannot  see  any resources at all ...

I try to  RESCAN  button  no success  ...

what should I do to make it work ?   where am I wrong ?

thank you 

regards

Carlo

  • Carlo,

    The Processor SDK is not setup for Resource Explorer like the SDKs for MCUs are. Basically software packages provide metadata so that Resource Explorer can scan and display them. The Processor SDK is not setup in this way.

    I believe the processor SDK provides makefiles instead of CCS projects for many of the examples. Thus these will not be discovered by Resource Explorer Classic as it is scanning for CCS projects.

    I would suggest starting with the documentation on the Processor SDK. The team in the Sitara forum would be best suited to answer questions from there.

  • Carlo,

    Can you provide a screen shot of what you think is working and what is not.  

    If you install the processor sdk for AM335x and point Resource Explorer Classic to it this is all that you will see:

    That top level ti-processor-sdk-rtos-am335x-evm-4-2 folder is the location where I installed the SDK and then I clicked on the add package button in Resource Explorer Classic and added this location. 

    You can see in the capture what it finds.

    The new (non-classic) Resource Explorer is not going to find it at all:

  •  HI John ,

    I m on AM572x  btw .

    what is not working is  :    in View  there is ONLY  resourse explore classis ( not the new  too ) .

    plus in  classic  you see theleft area of the screen of TI resources totally blank  .  

    the look for resources button is disable and  I tried to add  , but it did ont work ...

    installation seems to have lost somthing .

    could it be a problem if you install  not in ADMINISTARTOR mdoe ?    

    coudl it be the antivirus , any indications ?

    any indication on java machine version needed and how to check ?

    thank you

  • Carlo,

    Your environment does not look right at all. There are buttons on the toolbar that we do not include on the toolbar for any of our CCS Edit and CCS Debug perspectives. The menu is also wrong. I see both Navigate and search but we do not show those. It looks a bit like the Analyze Perspective but I am not sure how you would have gotten into that.


    Try going to Window -> Perspective -> Open Perspective -> Other.
    Select the CCS Edit perspective.

  •   Hi John

    I did some progress  but still a question .

    I reinstalled  CCS  from offline installer as Administrator  and   thinks are better .

    so to recap I m  on AM5728 TIRtos SDK  and latest CCS .  

    Now I want to run a  basic HELLO example in TIrtos/Sysbios and following getting started guide in  SDK .  

    in Classic explore view  I can see SYSBIOS  while in  Explorer ( not the classic )  I cannot find it ...  where am I wrong ?

    in attach the two screenshots

  • Carlo,

    You are not missing anything.  The processor SDK (and the sub packages within in it) is not built to work with the new Resource Explorer.

    "The Processor SDK is not setup for Resource Explorer like the SDKs for MCUs are. Basically software packages provide metadata so that Resource Explorer can scan and display them. The Processor SDK is not setup in this way."
