    The compiler is a deterministic program.  Given the same input, it will produce the same diagnostics, which may be no diagnostics at all.  The root cause of your problem is probably somewhere deep in your host system, either the OS or the hardware.  I don't know how we could help you with that.

    If you can somehow find a way to make the problem consistently reproducible, then please follow the directions in the article How to Submit a Compiler Test Case.  

    For now, since it appears we are unable to help you, I will mark this issue resolved.

    Thanks and regards,

    Thanks for your reply..

    can you clarify some more information about compatibility with OS versions.

    I am using "ti-cgt-c6000_8.0.1" version in Windows 10 64 bit host and windows 7 64 bit host.

    whether above Compiler version still supports mentioned Windows host?

    Version 8.0.1 was released in January 2015.  This is before the release of Windows 10 in July 2015.  So, while we never tested it for Windows 10, it should work.  Microsoft works hard to maintain this kind of compatibility.  I'm confident many other customers use version 8.0.x releases on Windows 10.  

    Is it practical for you to upgrade to a more recent release?  The latest release at this time is version 8.3.3.

    Thanks and regards,

    -George
