Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler
Hello
If I wanted to bolt a graphical front end, say a PLC editor, onto code composer studio how would I do this?
I have written a basic compiler in visual studio that converts a Boolean expression into c code and I'm just a little bit lost on the way forward.
Would it be a plug in and if so is there a document that shows how? or is this more of an eclipse thing?
Thanks
Carl
Carl,
Some integration you can do without writing an Eclipse plug-in.
For example I can associate a file extention with an external editor so that when I double click on a file in a project it will open in that program.
I can do that here by going to file associations. Then adding the the extension I am interested in. Then at the bottom right I click add and select the program to associate the file with.
As far as having the file "build", the easiest thing to do would be to add a pre-build step that runs you compiler with the necessary input files. I would suggest setting up a batch file or a script that does that.
Going any further than that is going to require writing Eclipse plug-ins.
Regards,
John
Hello John
Thanks for that, it is as I suspected an eclipse thing would be a possible final solution.
But your earlier suggestion will move me to that to that point.
Could not find the associate menu under the preferences, maybe something to do with the version of CCS( I am using CCS v10 )...but I can achieve the same effect using windows to associate certain files with given packages.
Your suggestion of running a pre-build sounds like it will do the trick for testing purposes...just to make sure that would be the below location "Pre-build steps"
There have seen some suggestions of using the CCS toolchain...are they making reference to the below image( GNU v7.2.1…... ) or is there another layer to this...that is an actual CCS toolchain as apposed to a third party toolchain??
or are they possible saying that I somehow run the below build command line from "another" .exe
thanks for you help....
Stay safe
Carl
