CCS 2.10.0 output filenames are truncated to short [DOS] name - Steve Thornhill - Jan 9 14:30:00 2002



I've just updated from CCS 1.20 to 2.10 My development environment is WIN 98
and a DSK6711
When I compile example programs my output filenames are truncated to short (DOS)
formats.
Compiling slicecfg_c.c outputs slicec~1.obj. The linker then fails with a can't
open file error.
Manually renaming the output file allows it to link properly. Does anyone have
any information about this
"feature".
thanks ,
Steve Thornhill

Steve,

Once I saw somewhere on the net a clause "this is not a bug, this is
a feature" :)

That same truncation occurs with TI's C6x code gen. tools v 4.00 (i.e.
CCS 1.20). I thought it has been fixed in v 4.10, but obviously I was
wrong... Supposedly the only option left for now is to avoid using long
names.

Sorry that it is not of much help.

Andrew

I Installed CCS 2.10.0 on a Windows 2000 system and compiled the example
program
without a problem. Apparently it is a feature with WIN 98 only.
I guess the simplest work around is to upgrade to Win 2K.

RE: Re: CCS 2.10.0 output filenames are truncated to short [DOS] name - Finger, Robert - Jan 10 16:25:00 2002

Steve, Andrew,

there is an easy solution for your problem. Look into your win.ini. I'll
guess you will find the following lines:

[Code Composer]
BackgroundCompile=SAFE

Remove them and the problem with the filenames should be gone.

Best Regards,
Robert
