Code Composer Studio with -mg compile switch(C6x) has problems | Code-Composer

Hello All, When compiling with the -mg switch for cl6x (version 3.01 and 2.11 do the same thing), the TMS320C6000 Optimizing C Compiler User's guide states "When you combine the -g option and the -o option with the -mg option, all of the line directives are removed except for the first one and last one." This causes Code Composer Studio some problems, namely, without line directives, it can not set profile (or for that matter break/probe) points. Seems strange to compile with the -mg switch so that you can profile optimized code and not be able to profile optimized code in Code Composer Studio. You can tell that Code Composer Studio is lost by looking at mixed C and ASM. All of the ASM code will be at the top and all of the C code will be at the bottom instead of mixed. Yes, I have passed this on to the TI Hotline, but they have not replied after three days. I also have tried using the clock function to time critical functions and get different time values than what Code Composer Studio gives in the Profile Statistics. Granted this is without the -mg switch and I have tried both optimized (-g and -o2) and non-optimized (-g). I also have the profile clock set to the period of the C6701 EVM (133MHz CLKOUT1 or CPU Clock translates to 7.51ns period roughly). The only thing I haven't changed is the pipeline adjustment value in the clock setup. And yes the profile clock is enabled when I profile. I have tried both the Execution Packet and clock values for the count option. I am looking at the DSP/BIOS hooks for timing but they use the profiler as well. The only other option left may be the RTDX hooks which I have not learned yet(other than the tutorial). So any pointers in this direction would be great! Am I missing something? Why are the values from the profiler and the clock function so different? TIA for your help! Jim <mailto:> Jim Malone II Senior Engineer ComSpace Corporation (972)-894-0225
