CCS/TMS320C6678: How import projects or workspaces form Code Composer Studio v8.3 to Code Composer Studio v8.1 ?

Part Number: TMS320C6678

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Dear all,

A few months ago, I installed Code Composer Studio v8.3 on my system and I created a project on CCS v8.3 . 

Now, I want to import that project to Code Composer Studio v8.1 on another system.

But, I get an error on the CCS v8.1 during importing that project. It suggested me to update CCS version from 8.1 to 8.3 . This is not possible for me to update CCS software right now.

My question is:

1- Is there any way to import projects/workspaces from CCS v8.3 to CCS v8.1 ? What is the simple way in this situation?

Best Regards,

Mohammad

  • In general, CCS projects are not backward compatible. This is especially true when talking about major CCS revision number differences (like CCSv9 -> CCSv8), but minor revision number differences (CCS8.3 -> CCS8.1) may also be impacted. 

    If CCS is reporting an error during import, then your options are to either update CCS on that machine to 8.3 or re-create the project for 8.1 (ie, create a new project in 8.1 and copy over the source files and settings from the 8.3 project).
