RTSC Module Primer / Lesson 0+1 Examples / Windows Double-Quotes [message #3920]

Hi,

I'm starting to walk through lessons and examples for the RTSC Primer. But
the first example doesn't work on my Windows host.

Citation in http://rtsc.eclipse.org/docs-tip/RTSC_Module_Primer/Lesson_0 :
"Windows-hosted developers should surround «xdcroot» or «c6xtools» with
double-quotes "..." if these directory paths contain any spaces in their
names."

I did this and lesson 1 doesn't work. The output is:

"C:/Programme/Texas Instruments/xdctools_3_10_03"/xs xdc.tools.configuro
-c "C:/Programme/Texas Instruments/C6000 Code Generation Tools 6.1.10" -t
ti.targets.C64P -p ti.platforms.sim64Pxx -o cfgsite prog.cfg
Der Befehl ""C:/Programme/Texas Instruments/xdctools_3_10_03"" ist
entweder falsch geschrieben oder
konnte nicht gefunden werden.
gmake: *** [cfgsite/compiler.opt] Error 1

It look like the double-quotes are not in the right place. I did other
modifications in "common.mak": surround macros+extenstions with
double-quotes. This works.

Question: what will be best practice for solving the problem? And can this
configurations used on Linux hosts too?

Regards,
Andi

i have to be honest with you.... i've seen so many issues with spaces in
pathnames that my best advice is: avoid them if possible!!!!

i'm not sure i understand what you did that eventually worked, but could
you send an example....

the text in the module primer was probably a little misleading, for
which we apologize....

I agree with you, avoiding spaces in path names would be the best
solution. Unfortunately, TI uses spaces in the setup default pathes of
their products, for example:

"C:\Programme\Texas Instruments\xdctools_3_10_03" on a german Windows XP
"C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\xdctools_3_10_03" on an english
Windows XP

Following the hint at lesson 0, I modified common.mak:

XDCROOT = "C:/Programme/Texas Instruments/xdctools_3_10_03"
C6XTOOLS = "C:/Programme/Texas Instruments/C6000 Code Generation Tools
6.1.10"

Good idea, but it seem windows doesn't allow the concatenation of quoted
pathes with sub-pathes. Running lesson1/makefile comes up with this
application name:

"C:/Programme/Texas Instruments/xdctools_3_10_03"/xs

This will not work. We need this command:

"C:/Programme/Texas Instruments/xdctools_3_10_03/xs"

You see what I mean? Other combined path names will be malformed, e.g.:

CONFIGURO = $(XDCROOT)/xs xdc.tools.configuro
LOADER = $(XDCROOT)/xs xdc.tools.loader
CC = $(C6XTOOLS)/bin/cl6x -q
...-l $(C6XTOOLS)/lib/rts64plus.lib

another approach is to use the old DOS 8.3 name that corresponds to
filenames with spaces.... no quotes would then be needed....

This may be a workaround. But anyway, the hint to use double-quotes will
not work and should be removed.

Sorry, here is the solution. Don't do this - put the whole path into
double-quotes:

XDCROOT = "C:/Programme/Texas Instruments/xdctools_3_10_03"
C6XTOOLS = "C:/Programme/Texas Instruments/C6000 Code Generation Tools
6.1.10"

But put every "part" which contanis spaces into double-quotes:

XDCROOT = C:/Programme/"Texas Instruments"/xdctools_3_10_03
C6XTOOLS = C:/Programme/"Texas Instruments"/"C6000 Code Generation Tools
6.1.10"

This works!

Question: will this work on Linux too? I'm not familiar enough with the
Linux file systems.

Regards,
Andi
