How can I change the version of XDCtools used to build new Eclipse projects?

Code Composer Studio 4 references XDCtools and DSP/BIOS versions in different places for different purposes. The two purposes are:

• IDE support version. The "Eclipse plug-ins" come from the version selected for IDE support. This includes the version for the Runtime Object Viewer and the dialogs that allow you to control RTSC aspects of the build. For details, see FAQ-080730-2.
• RTSC Target Runtime support version. Your application is build with this version of XDCtools. This includes the xdc.runtime package, other packages, and tools such as configuro. For details, see FAQ-080729-1 (existing projects) and below (defaults for new projects).

This distinction is useful because you may want to use the latest dialogs and tools within CCStudio for creating and debugging the application, while using an older version to build your application for stability or backward compatability reasons.

Steps

You can set the default version for Eclipse IDE projects you create in the future as follows:

1. From the IDE's menus, choose Window->Preferences.
2. 
   In the Preferences window, expand the tree and choose TI->Managed Build.
3. Select the updated version of XDCtools in the "XDCtools version" drop-down, and click OK. If you are asked to restart the IDE, please do.

If you leave the version fields blank, new projects default to the latest installed version of each tool.
