CC3100 email_application sample code

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5529, CC3100

I received a free CC3100 BoosterPack and MSP430f5529 Launchpad from TI through my university so that we could develop internet of things applications in an assembly language programming class.

The CC3100 came with several example projects, including one to send email. However the code for this project exceeds the 16Kb size dictated by my free CCSv6 licence and I get an error when I try to build it.

error #10269: output file "email_application.out" exceeds code size limit

It seems strange that TI would supply demo code that can't be built with the free licence for CCSv6. Is there a work around for this that will allow me to complete my project or am I completely stuck without buying a licence?

Hi Michael,

You can compile the application with maximum optimization to reduce the code size.
Go to "project property -> Build -> MSP430 Compiler -> Optimization" and set "Optimization level" to '4 Whole Program Optimization".

Hi Ankur,

Thanks for the response.
I did try that before I posted, but It wasn't able to make the code small enough. I actually found a way to solve my problem by using the using the gcc compiler, which has no code size limit.
