CCS/CC2642R: Debug problem in CCS9

Part Number: CC2642R


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Team,

my customer is facing issues with CCS9 (coming from CCS8). The first is an issue for debugging and critial for development. The second seems to be a GUI presentation error in CCS9. They are using their own CC2642R based hardware.

1. When you start debugging a project, CCS9 crashes periodically immediately after the code is loaded into the microcontroller. We trying to rename all ctools.dll's in C:\ti\ccs900\ccs\ccs_base\emulation\analysis\bin folder, as mentioned in this post: http://e2e.ti.com/support/tools/ccs/f/81/p/565761/2073168#2073168. This helped solve the problem, but the following errors occur during debugging:

Cortex_M4_0: Trouble Reading Register REG_ENDIAN: (Error -2030 @ 0xF) Attempted to access an unknown or invalid register. Confirm the register is valid and accessible, and retry the operation. (Emulation package 8.1.0.00005) 

2. The code editor incorrectly grayed out the inactive code. For example, the USER_FUNC_EN macro is 0, however, no shading of the code after #if USER_FUNC_EN occurs. The macro USER_FUNC_EN is declared in a connected .h file. However, the code is compiled correctly, the values of the macros are taken into account. Reinstalling CCS does not solve these problems. In CCS8, these problems were not observed.

I have dump files regarding #1 and a screen shot regarding #2 that I can share offline.

Thanks!
