Code Composer Studio ™ IDE v3.3 Service Release 3: SDSCM00017777 Workaround
The easiest way to avoid this issue is to ensure that less than six control windows are open at
any given time. Also, whenever possible, please ensure that all control windows not currently
being used are closed.
If opening six control windows is an absolute must, users can alter their Windows Registery
to increase the resource allocation for Windows programs as follows. This is not the preferred method of working around this problem:
Issue
CCS may become unstable and crash when too many control windows are open on multi-core targets.
This has been categorized as SDSCM00017777: "CCS crashes when too many control windows
are open." This defect is contained in the Code Composer IDE and can affect all targets.
Cause of Defect
This issue is caused by Windows resource limitations. When greater than five control windows
are open CCS reaches the maximum amount of allowable resources. This leads to unstable
behaviour that may eventually result in a program crash.
