CCS/MSP432-DEBUGGERS: FreeRTOS Demo on CCS v8 import not possible

Part Number: MSP432-DEBUGGERS


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I´m trying to import a demo application from FreeRTOS (CORTEX_M4F_MSP432_LaunchPad_IAR_CCS_Keil) to CCS, step by step with the manual (File > import> Code Composer Studio > CCS Projects).
Whenever I select the named file and want to finish, following error appears:

Import failed for project 'RTOSDemo' because its compiler definition is not available. The project does not appear to be a CCS Project. Please try importing it using the 'General > Existing Projects into Workspace' wizard.

When I try to Import it t the suggested way, I tells me I should try it with Code Composer Studio > CCS Projects.

Does anybody know what to do?

Thanks

    Hannah,

    One issue could be if this demo was created for a much older version of CCS.  In that case it would be using a much older compiler.  If the compiler is really old then CCS would not have the "build definitions" that enable it to migrate the compiler options from that version to the version that is currently installed in CCS.

    We can probably get the demo going by installing an older version of the compiler, however the SimpleLink SDKs come with freeRTOS examples.  In Resource Explorer inside CCS you can look under software and then SimpleLink MSP432P4 SDK.  A number of the examples and demos have versions that use freeRTOS instead fo TI-RTOS.

    The quick start guide has a section on how to specify where you have freeRTOS installed:
