CCS/AM5728: how to run ti examples

Part Number: AM5728


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I installed ccs9 and I have am57x idk and i use xds100v2 usb prob to connect to idk, now i want to run existing examples (e.g IPC example located in C:\ti\ipc_3_50_03_05\examples\AM572X_bios_elf\ex02_messageq). I have successfully ran gmake commands and it has generated bin directories for me, but now I'm confused how to use these files and how to open them in ccs, i expected a *.cssproject file to be generated, which could be imported to ccs!!

any help would be appreciated.

thanks.

  • Hello,

    Are you running Linux or RTOS on the ARM core?

    The IPC examples are makefile based. You can run the binaries using CCS, but at the moment, we do not have any scripts that will automatically create the CCS projects for you. 

    For Linux, follow the "IPC Linux" steps in the IPC Quick Start Guide. For RTOS, follow the "IPC RTOS" steps.

    IPC Quick Start Guide

    To port the examples to CCS, I recommend referring to the makefile for each core. For example, for the ARM core refer to the makefile inside ~\ipc_3_50_03_05\examples\AM572X_bios_elf\ex02_messageq\host\.

    You will need to copy the compiler/linker arguments defined in the makefile (CFLAGS, LADFLAGS, LDLIBS), along with the platform (ti.platforms.evmAM572X:host), and copy over the files inside the "host" and "shared" folder.

    I hope this helps. If you have any questions please let me know.
