CCS/LAUNCHXL-CC2650: Is GCC ARM v7.2.1 example available for Project Zero ?

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC2650

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

Hi all,

I have project_zero_app_cc2650launchxl and it compiles with TI Compiler v18.1.5 properly without issues.

... But when I switch from TI Compiler v18.1.5 to GCC ARM v7.2.1 (Linaro) lost all settings like defines, include paths and so on

Is there examples with GCC ARM v7.2.1 for Project Zero ??

Hi YiKai Chen,

Of course, I have reasons !! =)

For example I want to use GCC ARM because of better support of newest standards like C++17, C++20 and so on

Also GCC has a new feature from new standard which I would prefer to use ...

From source code I saw in in Ble SDK and TI sources a lot of defines for GNU GCC compiler and it seems for me that it is possible to compile CC2650 with GCC ARM support ...

Also in Code Compose Studio when I switched to GCC ARM in my project was copied cc26x0f128.lds linker script ...

That is why I need and think it is possible to compile with GCC ARM support

Are you sure that it is not possible ?

Seems like it is possible to compile TI-RTOS with gcc-arm-none-eabi:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

ARCH=arm

CROSS_COMPILE=/${compiler_dir}/compilers/gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2018-q2/bin/arm-none-eabi-

make -f bios.mak XDC_INSTALL_DIR=/${home_dir}/ti/xdctools_3_32_00_06_core XDCARGS='gnu.targets.arm.M4F=/${compiler_dir}/compilers/gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2018-q2'

Also I was able to compile some parts of Ble Stack needed by my project using gcc-arm-none-eabi

Are you sure it is not possible to compile Ble Stack with gcc-arm-none-eabi ?

It might be able to compile but there’s risk that output FW might not function properly.

Hi YiKai Chen,

It seems strange that TI supports all over the header files GNU macros support, but at the same we have risk of not function properly.

If Texas Instrument will open source all Ble Stack and TI-RTOS, I think it would be possible to help make it works properly !!
