New project wizard page allowing users to select an example project to start
with.
Currently, examples include simple Hello World type examples and SYS/BIOS
examples for targets that support SYS/BIOS.
o Added MISRA-C option support
o
Significantly improved simulator bring-up performance when connected to the
network
· Data Visualization Tools
o Context (Thread) and Interrupt Aware function profile: CCS Simulator Function profiler has been enhanced to support function and interrupt awareness. OS instrumentation is required to log the context switch. Example code is included to show a hook function that can be used for DSP/BIOS
o Data Structure Profile: The CCS simulator data structure profiler has been integrated into CCS profiler
o Compiler based Code Coverage: The Compiler based code coverage feature has been integrated into CCS profiler
o
System Trace Log Viewer: The Trace Analyzer has been enhanced to collect and display System Trace logso Logic Analyzer: This analysis is available via the Trace Analyzer to graphically view System Trace events
o
IVA-HD Analyzer: This analysis is available via the Trace Analyzer
to perform duration and execution analysis of IVAHD System events.
· Debug Server
o
Several bug fixes, including but not limited to:
SDSCM00037001 Stellaris code comes up running and does not halt at main
when all sections are placed in internal SRAM
SDSCM00037053 Need GEL call to unload all loaded GEL files
SDSCM00035749 Unable to look up static local variable on 28x target
SDSCM00036215 LD_LIBRARY_PATH for DSS
· Debug and Trace
o OMAP4 debug and trace support
o System Trace support for OMAP4
o XDS560v2 System Trace emulator support
o Support for CToolsLib
o
CTools Trace DSS scripting environmento MSP430:
§ Feature Changes
a. Added device support for MSP430BT5190, F55xx, F563x, F530x
and L092 (XML file change)
b. Removed XMS430F5438
c.` Support for workarounds of MSP430F5xx/F6xx
silicon errata CPU15, CPU18, CPU21, CPU22, CPU23, CPU40
d. Support to write MSP430F5xx BSL memory area
e.
Updated documentation for code generation tools
g. Updated MSP430L092 code examples and
projects
h. CCS supports the use of the generic
msp430.h header file. The IDE will automatically specify the right
device header file upon device selection in the project properties
§ Bug Fixes
a.
Various stability fixes in the msp430.dll software component.
§ Known Issues
a. When switching between the L092 and L092 emulation mode, the IDE doesn’t
automatically select the corresponding linker command files. Please
select the files manually in the project properties.
b.
Usage of multiple MSP-FET430UIF interfaces at one PC: There may be
connection issues if multiple USB interfaces are connected same USB hub.
Connect the interfaces to different hubs.
c. Single stepping stability issue: If 0x40 is move in to any CPU register
the program counter will be corrupted, single stepping will fail (device
will reset itself).
d. Importing CCSv4.x
projects may require a project clean (Project
→
Clean…) in case of build/import errors.
· Simulation
o
Ability to run any device specific BIOS based applications on the CPU / Mega module simulators.
C64x+ CPU and Mega module simulators earlier had fixed set of timers
and memory map; hence users could not run many of the “device”
specific BIOS based programs.
Now users can choose the “device” name in
“Target Configuration” window so that the device specific timers and
memory map are used.
o C64x+ single core simulators now have the provision for users to provide the EMIF and CPU clocks in the “Target Configuration” window. This helps in getting better cycle numbers.
o Watchpoint support is now available on all single core C64x+ simulator configurations.
o
The following Simulator Configurations are removed:
§
C55x+ CPU Cycle Accurate Simulator
§
C55x+ CPU Functional Simulator
§
C55x+ Megamodule Cycle Accurate Simulator
§
C62xx CPU Cycle Accurate Simulator
§
DM642 Device Cycle Accurate Simulator
§
DM6467 HD VICP Functional Simulator (GEM + HDVICP0 + HD-VICP1)
§
C6415 Device Cycle Accurate Simulator
§
C6414 Device Cycle Accurate Simulator
§
Compiled simulators:
§ C6416 Device Functional Compiled Simulator
§ C64xx CPU Cycle Accurate Compiled Simulator
