How do you configure a CCS Cloud project to link with MSPWare DriverLib?
Context:
I am experienced software developer in C/C++, using Eclipse IDE, Energia IDE, Github, GDB, etc.
Ubuntu host. Have installed and used CCS Cloud before, but just playing. I have a MSP-EXP430FR2433 Launchpad (and other Launchpads.)
I have written and compiled my code against DriverLib using Eclipse IDE, without linking. Now I could continue in Eclipse, configuring my Eclipse project by soft linking some DriverLib sources into the project so that they compile and are linked in, and configuring for cross-compiling to MSP430, etc. But I thought it might be easier to switch to CCS Cloud, where all the configuration for cross-compiling to the target msp430 is built in, already done.
Another question is: once you import a Github repository into CCS Cloud (where the repository has no CCS project in it), how do you make a project out of it? What I did so far was just import a Github repository into the workspace, and copy the /src directory into an empty CCS project.
In general, I am looking for a basic user guide for CCS Cloud, that tells you at a high level how to manage projects i.e. create a project from existing Github repository, configure the project to link to other libraries.
