CCS/BEAGLEBOARD-X15: GCC 8 could not be added to CCS9

mustafa.gonul

Part Number: BEAGLEBOARD-X15

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi all,

I am trying to use SDK6 for Linux for Beagleboard X15 and trying to test features. I have downloaded SDK, CSS and GCC toolchain via the link: http://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux-rt/esd/AM57X/latest/index_FDS.html

GCC is currently installed with the SDK but there is also an option to download separately and there is already link for standalone download. I have downloaded the standalone version of GCC and tried to configure CCS for it. The problem is I can configure CCS for older versions but not the version delivered within the link. (gcc-arm-8.3-2019.03-x86_64-arm-linux-gnueabihf)

As you see in the screenshot below, GCC 7 can be discovered by CSS but not GCC 8.

I appreciate if you can help me to figure out the issue.

Kind Regards,

Mustafa

Mustafa,

I really don't know what may be happening in your setup. I am able to acknowledge the newer compiler just fine on my CCSv9.1.0 running on Ubuntu 16.04/64.

This mechanism usually works very well, but i wonder if the previous version may be confusing CCS. Can you try to remove the 7.3.1 compiler and its path to see if it works?

Also, I am not entirely sure which bersion of CCS you are using. Can you download the latest version of CCS, install in a separate directory and use a different workspace? (this prevents disrupting your current development environment).

Apart from this, I am not entirely sure what is happening in your setup but I will keep an eye to see if others report similar issues.

Regards,

Rafael
