TMS3206211 Support
The main feature of this update release is to provide emulation support for the TMS320C6211 device. The C6211 is supported by the device driver named 'tixds6x1x.drv'. All others use the current driver named 'tixds6xxxx.drv'. A predefined import configuration called 'C6x1x XDS510 Emulator' is installed for use with the C6211 DSK board. For other C6211 boards install the above mentioned device driver and configure per your board..
A sample GEL initialization file called 'init6211.gel' has been included in the \ti\cc\gel directory. This file sets up the EMIF registers for the C6211 DSK board. If you are using the C6211 DSK board copy this file over the init.gel file you currently are using. If you are using a board custom or third party board then you will need to set the EMIF registers based upon the boards configuration. You will not be able to load the init6211.gel file into Code composer without first removing init.gel since they both define identical function and symbol names.
Emulator Analysis Plug-in
Updates the Emulator Analysis plug-in to version 1.07.3. Changed the hardware breakpoint address edit field to accept addresses larger than 0x7FFFFFFF. (SDSsq08175)
Command Window
Updates the Command Window plug-in to version 1.12. Adding the ability to work in a multi-processor system (SDSsq07816) and handle context help (Shift-F1) properly (SDSsq07513).
Important Notice
Some anti-virus programs can cause problems when building a project with Code Composer. The anti-virus software may cause A:\ to be accessed on each file compiled, or may cause compilation to hang. (SDSsq06918, SDSsq06879, SDSsq06730) If you observe these symptoms, there are three workarounds:
If you install Code Composer Studio, or any of its variants, over each other, you may create environment variable definitions exceeding 128 characters. The build environment will ignore these, causing compilations and links to fail. Edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file (Win 95/98), or "Start->Settings->Control Panel:System: Environment" (Win NT) to remove redundant definitions. (However, once you have done this, on Win 95/98, uninstalling just one product may remove an environment variable setting still needed by the remaining product.)
After installation you may need to reboot if you are unable to communicate with the XDS510 board.
