CCS/CC3220MODA: How to use new SDK in CCS project?

Part Number: CC3220MODA


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I've got a project working with CC32xx SDK 1.50.0.06.  I want to take advantage of the http client in 1.60.0.04, so I installed it on my PC.  I can see it listed in the Installed Products list.  

If I update the COM_TI_SIIMPLELINK_CC32XX_SDK_INSTALL_DIR in the Linked Resources section of the project properties, it doesn't take.  If I close the window and reopen it, the value goes back to the old SDK location.

How can I go about changing the SDK in my project?

Thanks!

Joe K.

  • Hi Joe,

    If you're taking a project that is already in your workspace and you want to update it to reference the new SDK, do the following:

    1. Go into the RTOS project build on the General section

    2. Choose the Products tab

    3. In the Products and Repositories view, select the box for the latest SimpleLink CC3220 SDK version

    The main project should inherit this from the RTOS build and use it to set the linked resources appropriately.

    See example screenshot below:

  • Hi Ben,
    Thanks for the info.
    Did the posix/freertos files change names? I'm seeing that "_freertos" was removed from most files in this version.
    What's the easiest way to include the new files?
    Thanks,
    Joe K.
  • Hi Joe,

    Yes, I don't think this is explicitly stated in the core sdk release notes that all the simplelink SDKs rely on but it is part of the change described in the Upgrade and Compatibility Information section of the release notes. The big move was where the posix package is, but also the naming. Check here:
