Other Parts Discussed in Thread: C2000WARE

Dear TI,

We are using different versions of compilers, 18.12 18.2 20.0, and 21.6.

We want to choose one and stick with it but we don't know to make this choice and what we should focus on to make this choice.

Could you help us, please?

we use the CLA to update some peripherals but we don't run any code for this moment.

is there any document listing the bugs, the advantages/disadvantages of each one?

Thank you in advance

Please see the article Compiler Version Numbers and What They Mean.

Visit the C2000 code generation tools page. For a version of interest, click on the box titled Download options. In the box which pops up, click on the Release Notes.

Thanks and regards,

Hello Geoge Mock,

The question is, if we move from the 18.12 to 21.6 compiler, what will the impact on the software?

It's 21.6 is recommended by TI? How we could be sure that the software will have the same behavior?

I really want to read the user guide for the two compilers but no one has a huge amount of time to do this.

Thank you in advance,

S.Tarik

The best information we have available is described in my previous post. There is nothing further to add.

Another detail to consider ... If you use C2000Ware, or other software packages from TI, they typically document the version(s) of the compiler that the package was tested with. In such a case, you probably want to use that recommendation.

Please let me know if this reply resolves the issue.

Thanks and regards,

-George
