Compiler/TMS320F28377D: "serial number" differences in CCS project built with same code generation tool on different PC

Part Number: TMS320F28377D

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

Hi expert,

My customer build the same F28377D project on differnet PCs with the same version of code generation tool. They saw below information in the console and would like to what the number here indicating? Why they are differnent here? (say: 839814631, 1445525441, 1039951600, 1939916956)

Thanks

Sheldon

  • Hi Sheldon,

    Those numbers are randomly generated when an instance of tool is created. Hence the differences in the ID numbers between two separate projects using the same versions of the tools/components. This is expected. As long as the "superClass" string is the same, that is all that matters.

    Thanks

  • Hi, Ki,

     

    They are not the two separate projects. They are the same project.

    An engineer create a project, and share it with others.

    That means that the same project is opened on the different PCs. Why are the .cproject files different?

    Best Regards!

  • Hi Ki,

    I don't know if I catch what you mean by "separate". They are not two separate projects. They are the same project compiled on different PCs means an engineer creates a project, and share it with others.

    In this circumstance, why are the .cproject files different?

    Thanks

    Yes that is what I mean by "separate". There are two separate instances of the same project (one on each PC).

    As mentioned in my earlier post, those are ID numbers of the class instance. They are indeed randomly generated for each project instance. The key string to compare is just the "superClass" string. The ID number after that is random.

    Thanks

  • Hi, Ki,

    If the project file(.cproject) is randomly generated, even though the others code files and config files are the same, the project would be different by each engineer. Could you tell me how we should co-operate the "same" project by mutli-engineers? Which files could be shared each others, while which files could not? Before then, we could work together for the same project by CCS 3.3

    Best Regards!

  • Henry,

    How was the project shared among the two users who have different ID numbers? Did one person create it and then shared it to the other person to import into their workspace? Or are both people importing the same projectspec file? If it is the former, I expect the IDs to be the same for each person. If it is the latter, then I would expect them to be different.

    Thanks
