Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Is CSS Cloud just a basic CSS demo or can it be a real programming tool? I'm trying to use it but not having much luck.

For example, I can't find the include files in CCS Cloud. Which ones are available and where are they located?

I'm trying to create a program that requires the following include file.

#include "tm4c123gh6pm.h"

Since I can't find include files in CCS Cloud I typed the above include statement directly into my test program. But when I compile the program CCS Studio says it can't find it.

Here's my entire program. How do I run this in CSS Cloud?

================================================================

#include "tm4c123gh6pm.h"
/**
* main.c
*/
int main(void)
{

    SYSCTL_RCC_R |= 0x02400540; // System Clock Settings

   return 0;
}

================================================================

Finally, how can I view the "tm4c123gh6pm.h" file in CSS Cloud?

thanks!

David,

CCS Cloud is primarily intended for evaluation and early development after that people will typically migrate to our professional desktop tools.

As far as include files there are really 2 places they can be located. If you are starting with an example project they will typically reference include files that are part of an SDK. That SDK would be located in the cloud.

If you are starting a project from scratch you would add include files directly to your project. Include file that come with the compiler can #included as the path to those files is automatically part of the project options.

I would suggest starting with an example project and then modifying it. Here I have imported this project:
