CCS 4.2.0 environment variables

The CCS 4.1.3 installation for Windows XP setup an environment variable TI_DIR, which we used with several tools.

When I installed CCS 4.2.0 this environment variable was not setup?  Did this change?  If so why?

I did not see any environment variable info in the release notes.

 

 

  • Larry,

    I also noticed a while ago this environment variable was suppressed. Since it was never recommended to be used by anyone, its removal was done without warning.

    I am checking if this is the case or simply a bug. I will get back if I find anything different.

    The workaround is to manually add it to the system environment variables.

    Regards,

    Rafael

  • FYI, usage of environment variables has been (mostly) eliminated because they cannot be relied upon in multi-installation, multi-user, and network install scenarios.
