Other Parts Discussed in Thread: Z-STACK, CC2538

Hi,

I just downloaded the Z-Stack Mesh 1.0.0.

as mentioned in the Development Tools here:

http://www.ti.com/product/CC2538/toolssoftware

that CCS is used as an IDE.

but in the Samples given in the Stack I see just projects built with IAR for ARM?

to be able to develop our application can we use CCS?!

if yes so is it the PRO version or the free?

Z-Stack can only be compiled by IAR. By the way, CCS PRO is not free.

Thanks,

so any stack from here:

http://www.ti.com/tool/z-stack

can be compiled an debugged only bu IAR for ARM? (not just the Mesh one)

Just I am trying to find a free or less expensive IDE than IAR, is it possible to build a project in CCS or there will be limitations?

Thanks.

As I told you in previous post, Z-Stack can only be compiled and debugged only bu IAR for ARM(not just the Mesh one). There is no alternative now.
