for me , i use this operation to update my project .   I don't want create  new project to update it .

so , how can i do?   I remember V7.1  can copy and paste.

  • hello,

    For the first problem, there is not much details in the error. Can you provide the Eclipse error log file:

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Troubleshooting_CCSv7#CCS_Diagnostic_Logs

    For the second build error, see Archaeologist;s post below:

    https://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/p/180799/651658#651658

    Since the copy ran into errors, please carefully check the copied project to make sure the source files added to the project and the build options are as expected

    Thanks

  • I looked at one of the logs and found this error message:

    !MESSAGE The project description file (.project) for 'Copy of f28027BLDC_sensorless' was missing.  This file contains important information about the project.  A new project description file has been created, but some information about the project may have been lost.

    Check the original project folder. Does .project exist in that folder? If it does, for some reason it didn't get copied over to the copied project.

  • thank you Ki-soo:
    My original project is perfect , every thing is ok. it can pass debug and download to target .
    but why can not copy ? when i use v7.1 , it can copy and paste. now I use last version v7.4 of ccs.
    So I want ccs group can deal it . or figure out how to set .
    I don't know what important information didn't copy. so I can not check .

    by the way ,my computer us win7 64bit ,Is this problem?

    I cannot reproduce the issue. Copy and paste works fine for me in CCSv7.4. Can you share your project? You can send it to me via private message if you wish

    Windows 7-64 is fully supported by CCSv7.

    thanks

  • Thanks. I got it. I can copy your project without any problems. There must be some issue with your environment. Are you logged into your machine with administrator permissions? Can you copy any other projects successfully?
  • hi Ki:
    I run ccs as administration . but still has problem
    I mean i copy projects in the project explorer.

    my project on one worksapce , if I copy a project from workspace to other path file . then changer project name , then move in workspace again. then us ccs open it , also can not open . show same problem .

    but the way , I can not rename a project in project explorer .

    I think there are some place can set in ccs .... please ask ccs designer group how to deal with it .

    my computer is window 7 64bit.

    thanks

  • additional : my project create in v7.1 . but now i use v7.4.
  • Unfortunately without a reproducible test case, we cannot provide suggestions on how to fix.

    Can you try using a clean new workspace folder and import the project to it and try to make a copy?

    Also, can you confirm if you can copy other projects (or not)?
  • hi Ki
    I can not copy other projects also.
  • Did you try the new workspace folder also?

    Another thing to try is to copy the .project file from the original project folder to the folder of the new copy of the project. According to your error log, that was the main issue (.project file was misisng)
  • Hello,
    I haven’t heard back from you, I’m assuming you were able to resolve your issue. If not, please post a reply with an update below (or create a new thread).

    thanks,
