CCS/CCSTUDIO: CCStudio CLI silently exist after delay in Ubuntu 17.10 Docker

Hi Aarti,

Do you know the full package dependency list for Ubuntu 17.10?  This is my first Docker container but I'd start by assuming it's a regular problem unrelated to Docker itself.  That said, the Ubuntu Docker image is pretty minimal so packages that would normally be present are not.

Cheers,

-kyle

The Linux host support/dependencies for CCSv8 are listed in this page.

How should I debug the issue?  My blind guess (what else can I do? :] ) is that I'm missing some deps. 

Hi Chester,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I'll have to build a new Ubuntu VM (really?  i made a 10gb drive?  :[ )  and I'll give that a shot.

I'll take another stab at diffing packages/failed loads in the strace, but I made a bit of progress.  CCStudio runs until I install C2000 6.4.  I did switch to 18.04.  This should be using github.com/.../820ad02a565094f209fd029fa64b49b386486494.

        -ccs.location <path>
                Absolute or relative path to the location containing the project.

        -ccs.device <id>
                The device-variant ID. Applicable only when '-ccs.location' flag resolves to a .projectspec file.

        -ccs.definePathVariable <name> <value> [@scope (global|project)]
                Defines the given path-variable for resolving portable linked file paths (optional)
                (also defines a global build-macro with the same name and value).

        -ccs.captureCopiedFileOrigins

Below is the little script I used to process the strace log taken in the working Ubuntu 18.04 VM.  It resulted in `libc6:amd64 libgcc1:amd64 libpython2.7:amd64 libstdc++6:amd64 locales zlib1g:amd64` and installing those in the docker did not fix the issue.

import pathlib
import re
import subprocess
import sys

paths = set()
packages = set()

for line in sys.stdin:
    if line.startswith('open'):
        if 'no such file' in line.casefold():
            continue

        p, = re.finditer('"([^"]+)"', line)
        path = p[1]

        if path in paths or path.startswith(('/opt/ti/', '/home/')) or not path.startswith('/'):
            continue

        paths.add(path)

        package = subprocess.run(
            [
                'dpkg',
                '-S', p[1],
            ],
            stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
            encoding='UTF-8',
        ).stdout
        if len(package) > 100:
            print('ack', p[1])
            break
        package, _, _ = package.rpartition(':')
        packages.add(package)

print(' '.join(sorted(packages)))

Thanks for the follow up.  It turns out we could update to 18.1 just by getting rid of a couple improper `#include <cmath>`.  It still bugs me that I didn't get this working but adding enough that I could see the GUI would probably be good.  I never have liked dealing with stuff integrated into Eclipse like this.  It's much easier to just have a standard external build system.
