using files with DSP/BIOS

Started by fedelegger March 20, 2002
Hi everybody,
I'm working with 6711 dsk and CCS2. I'm trying to profile my code with
DSP/BIOS statistics accumulators. In my program I handle file I/O with
probe points. For some unknown reason, that doesn't seem to work (the
cpu repeatedly crashes). Has any of you experienced this? Any clue? Is
it possible to hand file i/o with DSP/BIOS? Can you give me same
simple source code to do this, or a reference I could look at?
TIA

Hi Federica,

I believe you should try using rtdx instead of probe points for file io.
Probe points require the cpu to halt every time the file io transfer takes
place, which may be affecting your program.

There is some examples using rtdx for reading and writing to files in the
ti\tutorials\dsk6711\hostio1 & 2 directories.
The text for the tutorial can be found by going Help->Tutorials in CCS. And
selecting Using DSP/BIOS->Getting Started with DSP/Bios-> Connecting to
Virtual I/O Devices in the Help Window.

Hope that helps.
