Known Issues for CCSv3.3

  • SDSCM00014440: CCS does not accept relative paths for loading workspaces in shortcuts
    • Component: Code Composer IDE
    • Target: All
    • Release Note: CCS changes the current working directory during startup, so command line references to Workspace files must be qualified

Known Issues for CCSv3.3

  • SDSCM00014440: CCS does not accept relative paths for loading workspaces in shortcuts
    • Component: Code Composer IDE
    • Target: All
    • Release Note: CCS changes the current working directory during startup, so command line references to Workspace files must be qualified
    • Work Around: Use a path relative to C:\ccstudio_v3.3\cc\bin, or an aboslute path. For example:
      • C:\CCStudio_v3.3\cc\bin\cc_setup.exe -i C:\CCStudio_v3.3\drivers\import\arm7tdmi_big.ccs -startCCS C:\Projects\arm7sim.wks
  • SDSCM00016113: Include the cache differences option in Memory Window in CCS 3.3
    • Component: Memory Window
    • Target: C6000
    • Release Note: C67X Customers that need to use the "cache bypass" and "highlight cache differences" features that were provided for C67X emulation targets by the memory window in CCS 3.1 can do so by opening the legacy memory window
    • Work Around: The old memory window can be accessed as follows, once the target is connected:
      • Select View / GEL Toolbar from the CCS Menu.
      • Enter GEL_OpenLegacyMemoryWindow(0x0000) into the GEL toolbar. This will open a CCS 3.1 style memory window at the address passed in as a parameter (0x0000 in this example).
      • You can right-click on this window and select Properties, which will display a dialog box that has the settings for cache bypass and highlight cache differences.
  • SDSCM00017777: CCS crashes when too many control windows are open
    • Component: Code Composer IDE
    • Target: All
    • Release Note: CCS may become unstable and crash when too many control windows are open for multi-core targets
    • Work Around: This issue is due to Windows resource limitations. To prevent it from occurring please ensure that less than six control windows are open at any given time. Also, ensure please ensure that all unnecessary control windows are closed. Alternately, users can alter their Windows Register to increase the resource allocation for Windows programs. Instructions explaining how to do so can be found here.
  • SDSCM00017327: Writing to the CPSR bit fields corrupts the register contents
    • Component: TPI
    • Target: ARM11
    • Release Note: The ARM debugger provides the View->CPSR Register Bits as one of options under View->Registers. The CPSR register can be viewed using a grid view or a tree view. Modifying a bit field when the viewing the register in a tree view corrupts the CPSR register.
  • SDSCM00020407: Optimize the size of the pcdt and trace sizes in the 6416 simulator
    • Component: SIM
    • Target: Curie
    • Release Note: The trace provided with the Laplace simulator are very large, need to optimize for size. Need to optimize for the TRP and CPU access trace.
