CCS/MSP430F5529: cannot open source file "cstring"

Part Number: MSP430F5529
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TDC1000, TDC7200EVM

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello everybody. I'm trying to compile the original ti's firmware of TDC1000_TDC7200EVM, and most of the .c source files have the follow include:

#include <cstring>

I've done a lot of research about, but couldn't solve it yet. I'm using the TI 18v1.3.LTS compiler, and I've already tried to include the cstring file from D:\Texas Instruments\ccsv8\tools\compiler\ti-cgt-msp430_18.1.3.LTS\include\libcxx. The archive is there, but if I include the folder into the program, a lot of syntax problems appears.

The CCS is not installed in his default folder. Does it matter?

I'm using the CCS 8.1.0

What should I do?


Thank you. 

  • Hello William,
    You should not have to include the whole folder into your project. You just need to add the path to it in your project build properties. The place you want to add the path is to the "Include Options" for the compiler.

    Thanks
