Compiler: CGT compiler missing header files.

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

Hi,

I used to be able to find these files at but this link no longer works, and I suppose is out of date anyway since we're up to CCS10.  Is there somewhere else where I can find these files.

  • Sorry, I should be more specific.

    What I am after is the platform specific header files and link scripts as well as the targetdb files for the MSP430 MCUs.

    Thanks.

  • In the CCS directory below, you can find the header files and linkers.

    C:\ti\ccs1000\ccs\ccs_base\msp430\include

    targetdb files are found below.

    C:\ti\ccs1000\ccs\ccs_base\common\targetdb 

  • How do I download these files without installing all of CCS? The compiler is provided as a standalone install and I need those files in the same form.

  • Hello,

    Sorry for the delay.  I am still looking into these plat form specific files and hope to have some feedback next week.

  • Hi,

    I have been able to put this off until now by working on other projects, but I can't delay any longer.  Even if you're able to just tar/zip up the `common` and `msp430` directories and post them here or email them to me that would do for now.

    Thanks.

  • Parakleta,

    The directories are quite large to attach here on e2e.  The easiest way is to download and install CCS.  You can download it below.

    I have also included the directories at the box link below if you do not want to install CCS.

  • Thanks for the box link, that will get me started.  There was some irrelevant files but they don't matter, but it appears the `msp430/lib` directory is missing with support libraries.  I'm not using any of the MCUs supported by that directory currently, but will be in a future project.

    I disagree that downloading CCS is the easiest (although I suppose it being the only way makes it the easiest by default).  Downloading nearly 1GiB of data just to extract (what was previously) a 7MiB package in support of a 24MiB compile tool seems wasteful.

    The previous files that I was able to access were called `ti_msp430pack_header_files_setup64_8.2.0.bin` and `ti_msp430pack_header_files_setup64_9.1.0.bin` if that makes it easier for you to figure out how to find/make them again.
