Can you provide compiler download links?

[waruqi]

Can you provide an example project with cmake or meson? or provide verbose build commands?

Example project with CMake: ti-c2000-cmake

Release.zip

A makefile project generated by ccstudio maybe helpful.

[Freed-Wu]

I use C6000-CGT 7.4.24 because some old chips are not supported by latest version.

[Freed-Wu]

7.4.24 has some incompatible command line option, such as --gcc, which enable some gcc extension feature, which is unnecessary for > 8.0.0.

[Freed-Wu]

For different chip, we should add a *.cmd file in last command line of cl6x.

7.4.24 requires account login to download :(

[Freed-Wu]

Right, 7.4.24 is here:

https://dr-download.ti.com/secure/software-development/ide-configuration-compiler-or-debugger/MD-vqU2jj6ibH/7.4.24/ti_cgt_c6000_7.4.24_linux_installer_x86.bin

[star-hengxing]

Right, 7.4.24 is here:

https://dr-download.ti.com/secure/software-development/ide-configuration-compiler-or-debugger/MD-vqU2jj6ibH/7.4.24/ti_cgt_c6000_7.4.24_linux_installer_x86.bin

It always redirect to login page.

Can you provide an example project with cmake or meson? or provide verbose build commands?

here:

• Download TI-CGT C6000 7.4.24 from here and put its bin/ to $PATH.
• Download DM6467.cmd. Put it into project root.
  It comes from ccstudio's /opt/ccstudio/ccs/ccs_base/c6000/include/DM6467.cmd
• Install direnv or source .envrc by yourself to set some environment variables which TI-CGT needs.
• Install meson, ninja. Temporarily, you need a patch for TI linear assmeble.

BTW, TI-CGT contains tools (compilers,assmebler,...) and C runtime (TI RTS). the latter is open source in BSD. here
