CCS/CCSTUDIO: BIOS_CG_ROOT variable empty

Part Number: CCSTUDIO


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I have an issue with the "Linked Resource" variable BIOS_CG_ROOT.

After installing the latest software. CCS v9.0.1.00004, (and at the same time installing th elatest SDK for AM57x Sitara Processors), this variable is empty, and I can not figure out how to set it.

When running a third party plugin "cppcheclipse", i get an error message, and I think the empty variable is the cause of this.

Appreciate your support,

Anders.

  • BIOS_CG_ROOT is an Eclipse Dynamic Variable. These are a special kind of Eclipse variables that get expanded at build time.

    Also it appears that BIOS_CG_ROOT is only set as a build variable (meaning that it is used to specify paths for the build) but not as a Linked Resource path variable (meaning you cannot specify paths to linked resources relative to the variable).

    In CCS 9.1, I was able to click on Edit on the build variable and see the resolved path.

    Hope this helps.

  • Thanks for your answer.

    I still get an error when running "cppcheclipse", but that is not critical for me.

    Best Regards,

    Anders.
