checkEnvSetup - Configure your coder product to interact with Code Composer Studio

Syntax

IDEs

This function supports the following IDEs:

• Texas Instruments Code Composer Studio v3

• Texas Instruments Code Composer Studio v4

Description

Before you use ticcs for the first time, use the checkEnvSetup function to check for third-party tools and set environment variables. Run checkEnvSetup again whenever you configure CCS IDE to interact with a new board or processor, or upgrade any of the related third-party tools.

The syntax for this function is: checkEnvSetup(ide, boardproc, action):

• For ide, enter the IDE you want to check:

  • 'ccs' checks the setup for Code Composer Studio v3

  • 'ccsv4' checks the setup for Code Composer Studio v4

• For boardproc, enter the name of a supported board or processor. You can get these names from the Processor option of the Custom board for TI CCS Target Preferences block, located in the idelinklib_ticcs block library. For example, enter: 'F2812', 'c5509', 'c6416dsk', 'F2808 eZdsp', 'dm6437evm'.

• For action, enter the specific action you want this function to perform:

  • 'list' lists the required third-party tools with their version numbers.

  • 'check' lists the required third-party tools and the ones on your development system. If any tools are missing, install them. If the version numbers of the tools on your system are not high enough, update the tools.

  • 'setup' creates environment variables that point to the installation folders of the third-party tools. If your tools do not meet the requirements, the function advises you. If needed, the function prompts you to enter path information for specific tools.

If you omit the action argument, the method defaults to 'setup'.

If action is 'list' or 'check', you can assign the third-party tool information to a variable instead of displaying it on the MATLAB command line. When action is 'setup', the statement does not return an output argument.

Examples

To see the required third-party tools and version information for your board, use 'list' as the action argument:

>> checkEnvSetup('ccs', 'F2808 eZdsp', 'list')

To compare your versions of the tools with the required versions. Use 'check' as the action argument:

checkEnvSetup('ccs', 'c6416', 'check')

Finally, set the environment variables your coder product requires to use the CCS IDE and generate code for your board. Use 'setup' as the action argument, or omit the action argument:

checkEnvSetup('ccs', 'dm6437evm')
