CCS/AWR1642: Function or loop end prompt of code browsing using CCS

Part Number: AWR1642

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,I have a problem of code browsing   using CCS. I can get a closing hint at the end of the function or loop  using Source Insigh .

But I can't find a similar feature on CCS. If the code is too long, it's hard for me to know where the previous loop or function ends.

Can you give some suggestion ? My CCS Version is 9.2.0.

Tanks

  • There is no featue exactly like that in CCS.  There are some other things that may be helpful for you.

    Highlighting range of function 

    Here I put my cursor on line 47 and it shows you the blue virtical bar in the selection margin (left of line numbers) that indicates the range of the function.  i.e. lines 47-50

    Highlight matching brackets

    Here I put my cursor on line 109 which is the end bracket for the while() loop.  You can see that on line 97 it has drawn a box around the matching bracket.

    You can also use the function listing in the project explorer or outline view to do the highlighting for you.  Here I have double clicked on the function john() in the project explorer and it has highlighted this function in the editor.

    There is an additional feature called folding that you can enable.

  • Dear John

    Thank you for your reply. Your advice has given me some help. I still have some questions about the folding function, and I enabled the folding features (#if/#endif   if/else)on my CCS.

    But I didn't see any changes in the loop  (#if/#endif   if/else).IS this  a bug or my understanding of the feature is wrong?

  • Odd.  That is working ok for me:

    In your case the if is inside a while() so I thought maybe that was an issue but that works for me too:
