Why am I unable to generate code if I specify a board string name that contains special characters during the Code Composer Studio setup for the Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP

I am unable to generate code if I specify a board string name that contains special characters during the Code Composer Studio setup for the Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP.

The name of my board contains characters such as "=", "%", "|", "'", "|", ":", and ";". I enter the name of my board in the Code Composer Studio setup and try to build my model using Real-Time Workshop. However, after doing this, the build process is not able to complete.

Several special symbols are not allowed in the Code Composer Studio board name string. These symbols cause various errors during code generation and/or corruption of your model's Real-Time Workshop Options. In particular, a recently-released emulator has a comma in its default board name. To work around the problem, rename your board in Code Composer Studio Setup. If your board is recognized by the board finder feature (via search by driver file name), your model will still work. If your models use "Manual" board selection, you must choose your board name again via Real-Time Workshop Options. The Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP already handles spaces, which cause a similar problem. Spaces are replaced by underscores. The Embedded Target for TI C6000 DSP 1.1 (R13SP1) handles all these characters similarly.
