Hello,

In lesson 5, I can run 'xdc all' without any problems, but when I try to test the package, I get the following:

D:\examples\lesson5>xdc test
C:/Users/SEBAST~1/AppData/Local/Temp/make4244-1.sh: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
xdctools_3_20_03_63\gmake.exe: *** [prog.x64P.test] Error 2

Why is this happening? Can you help me?

Regards.

Sebastian,
there was a bug in the platform that was used by default to run the examples. We fixed the bug since the 3.20.03 release, but just to be sure that's the problem you are seeing, can you add XDCOPTIONS=v to your xdc command line?

xdc XDCOPTIONS=v test

That should print the actual command line that runs the test, and I might be able to tell you how to fix it, or update your XDCtools installation.

Alternatively, look for the line in your config.bld, one directory above lesson5 and find the line:

C64P.platform = 'ti.platforms.load6x';

Try replacing that line with

C64P.platform = 'ti.platforms.sim64Pxx';

and see if that helps.

Sasha,

Thanks for your response.

Adding XDCOPTIONS=v to my xdc command does not make the output different. However, if I use

xdc clean
xdc XDCOPTIONS=v all

I get the following:

Maybe this helps to track the problem.

On the other hand, config.bld already has

C64P.platform = 'ti.platforms.sim64Pxx';

So what should I do now? Any ideas?
Thanks for your help.

If you run:

xdc clean
xdc XDCOPTIONS=v test

there should be a line that shows what command is being executed when running a test. This is how it looks like for me:

xdc.exe XDCOPTIONS=v test
#
# running prog.x64P ...
'E:/XDCtools Installs/xdctools_3_21_00_55/packages/ti/platforms/sim64Pxx/Windows
/kelvin' -quiet -mem_ignore 'C:\rtsc\examples\lesson5\prog.x64P'
Hello World

I see you are building for two targets. My guess is that the error comes from 64P and not from Mingw. The error message you are getting indicates that the command line generated to run the program is invalid.
There is another way to find out that command line. Look into the directory package/cfg in your lesson5 directory. You should see one or two files with the extension .dep. Open these files and find the line that starts with
'define EXEC.prog.x64P' or 'define EXEC.prog.x86GW'.
Please post what's between that line and the line
'endef'
in all .dep files you have.

That seems to be an instance of this bug:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=282605

The fix is available in 3.22. If you can update to that release, that would be the cleanest way to solve the problem.
Since the fix is quite basic, you can also make that change in your current installation and see if that helps. Here is the fix from <XDCtools>/packages/ti/platforms/sim64Pxx/Platform.xs

106,107c106,107

>             + java.io.File(prog.name).getAbsolutePath() + "'";

I updated xdctools to 3.22, and modified common.mak accordingly, but it didn't make a difference (I used xdc clean before trying to run the example again). Also, the bug you mention doesn't really look like what is happening to me. In addition, I tried this in another PC and it worked using the same setup. The only difference I notice between the PCs is that mine uses windows 7 x64, whereas the other uses the 32-bit version.

Other than that, I have been able to run even SYS/BIOS successfully. Please help me, I am starting a very important project for me and I would really like to do it using RTSC, but this problem kind of discourages me. Thanks in advance.

In your email where you posted the content of the file prog_x64.dep, you can see that there are no quotes surrounding the path to the executable 'kelvin'. Is the content of that file same on both PCs you were using?
If you run

xdc XDCOPTIONS=v test

on the 32-bit PC, what's the output? You don't have to post everything, only the output after the linker command line.

Sorry for taking too long, I've been a little busy.

I recently upgraded to xdctools 3.22.01.21, and I am still having the same problem. I do not have access to the 32-bit computer anymore, so I used instead my own Windows 7's XP-mode virtual PC. It turns out that lesson 5 runs successfully in XP mode (at least for p64P target).

File "prog_p64P.dep" in both cases have the following lines:

Windows 7 64-bit

define EXEC.prog.x64P

'C:/Program Files (x86)/Texas Instruments/xdctools_3_22_01_21/packages/ti/platforms/sim64Pxx/Windows/kelvin' -quiet -mem_ignore 'D:\examples\lesson5\prog.x64P'
endef

XP-Mode

define EXEC.prog.x64P

'C:/Program Files/Texas Instruments/xdctools_3_22_01_21/packages/ti/platforms/sim64Pxx/Windows/kelvin' -quiet -mem_ignore 'C:\examples\lesson5\prog.x64P'
endef

It seems to me that xdc (or whatever is executed in the background) cannot process "(" or ")" in a filename. And since the default path in a x64 PC for non-64-bit applications is "Program Files (x86)", this problem only occurs in my 64-bit Windows 7. I hope you can correct this issue in a future release, and if you have a quick solution, please let me know.

I have another problem. Now lesson 1 does not run. Everything seems fine when I run "gmake all", but when I run "gmake test", the following appears:

C:/Progra~2/TexasI~1/xdctools_3_22_01_21/xs xdc.tools.loader prog.out
Cannot find 'C:/Program along the path [D:\examples\lesson1\., C:\Progra~2\Texas

 C:\Program Files\Microsoft Windows Performance Toolkit, C:\Program Files (x86)\
Texas Instruments\xdctools_3_22_01_21]

It looks like an issue with the space in the "Program Files" name. I tried changing the pathnames in "common.mak" and "config.bld" for their 8.3 versions, and still got the same result. It looks like a bug with the 3.22.01 version, since the correct result is shown if I run:

D:\examples\lesson1>C:/Progra~2/TexasI~1/xdctools_3_20_08_88/xs xdc.tools.loader
 prog.out
Hello World

The behavior is the same in the XP-mode PC. What can I do?

Thanks in advance for your help.

As you guessed, spaces and '()' characters in files names cause quite a
problem for GNU make (the underlying tool used by xdc).

In some cases we are convert these files to 8.3 names, in other cases we
are able to quote the spaces but, in the end, problems are always
possible because at it's core GNU make simply does not support file
names with special characters in them.

The best answer is to install XDCtools in a directory _without_ spaces
or '()' characters. If this is not possible, you may be able to
"manually" override offending paths with their 8.3 equivalents.

For example, in your example below, you can get the 8.3 equivalent name
for "C:/Program Files (x86)/Texas
Instruments/xdctools_3_22_01_21/packages/ti/platforms/sim64Pxx/Windows/kelvin"
and use this to define the command used to run the test via
Program.execCmd; see
http://rtsc.eclipse.org/cdoc-tip/index.html#xdc/cfg/Program.html#exec.Cmd.

For what it's worth, running xdc with XDCOPTIONS=v often help diagnose
these problems; xdc will display _exactly_ what it's trying to execute.
xdc XDCOPTIONS=v ...

I have reinstalled all to C:\TI, so the new path to xdctools is C:/TI/xdctools_3_22_01_21. Lesson 5 seems to work now for target 64P:

A window appears here saying that "The program can't start because libstdc++-6.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.". After I close the window, the following additional output appears:

File C:\TI\xdctools_3_22_01_21\packages\ti\platforms\sim64Pxx\Windows\kelvin DOES exist, I can even run it manually and it works:

This has nothing to do with spaces in pathnames, since I am not using them anymore, and because 'gmake test' works perfectly fine with version 3.20.08.88 even when I use xdctools in "C:/Program Files/Texas Instruments.....", so this looks like a bug that should be fixed.

Finally, a suggestion: if spaces in pathnames give so much trouble, xdctools should not have as the default installation path one that has spaces in it.

Well, in summary: lesson1 is now giving trouble, and the original problem with lesson5 was "solved" for target 64P, but I could still use some help for target 86GW. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hummmm. This looks like a mingw installation/path issue.
libstdc++-6.dll looks like a mingw dll that gcc is trying to use. If
this DLL is not in the installation you may have to use the
"-static-libstdc++" switch for the linker to avoid this message.

This is a bug in the sim64Pxx platform package on Windows.

We were forced to make the default installation the "Windows standard"
which is quite unfriendly to programmers accustomed to make-based
command line tools.

Dave:

Where do I have to put this "-static-libstdc++"?
I discovered that the solicited files are in "C:\MinGW\bin" and "C:\MinGW\mingw32\bin", so I tried adding them to the path, and at least "xdc all" does not display any error message:

D:\examples\lesson5>xdc all

cl64P prog.c ...
lnk64P prog.x64P ...
cl86GW prog.c ...
lnk86GW prog.x86GW ...
all files complete.

However, "xdc test" still does not work:

D:\examples\lesson5>xdc test,86GW
running prog.x86GW ...
process_begin: CreateProcess(D:\examples\lesson5\prog.x86GW, ./prog.x86GW, ...)

As for the bug with sim64Pxx, do you have any idea about when it will get fixed? Is there something I can do in the meantime?

Thanks for your help!

In this case, you don't need to add "-static-libstdc++". Using this
option causes the mingw compiler to statically link in the C standard
library (which makes your executable bigger) but also has the effect of
avoiding the need to load the "missing" DLLs.

Hummm. Are you able to run prog.x86GW directly from the command line?
If so, the problem is in how the generated makefile is running the
executable. If not, there is a problem in the build of the executable.

Can you post the output when you run "xdc XDCOPTIONS=v test,86GW"? This
will display _exactly_ what the makefile is running.

Yes. Sasha is looking at the issue now and will post a patch to the
platform. It looks like a "simple" (but subtle) quoting problem when
the platform constructs the command to run.

If you're feeling adventurous, take a look at the file
ti/platforms/sim64Pxx/Platform.xs. The following line constructs the
command line used to run the executable.

command = "'" + packagePath + os + "/kelvin' -quiet -mem_ignore '"
+ java.io.File(prog.name).getAbsolutePath() + "'";

This probably needs to be changed to eliminate the "'" characters
surrounding the command. Something like the following _might_ work:

command = packagePath + os + "/kelvin -quiet -mem_ignore '"
+ java.io.File(prog.name).getAbsolutePath() + "'";

Yes, I am looking at the problem, and I am trying to find a solution that would work for both cases, lesson1 and lesson5 even if there are spaces in the paths. But, since you installed XDCtools in a directory without spaces, the following should work for you:

command = packagePath + os + "/kelvin -quiet -mem_ignore \""
+ java.io.File(prog.name).getAbsolutePath() + "\"";

Sasha and Dave, your correction worked perfectly for lesson 1. Thanks!

Here is the output for lesson5 target x86GW when using XDCOPTIONS=v:

D:\examples\lesson5>xdc test,86GW XDCOPTIONS=v
#
# running prog.x86GW ...
./prog.x86GW
process_begin: CreateProcess(D:\examples\lesson5\prog.x86GW, ./prog.x86GW, ...)
failed.
make (e=193): Error 193
gmake.exe[1]: *** [prog.x86GW.test] Error 193
xdctools_3_22_01_21\gmake.exe: *** [prog.x86GW.test] Error 2

Not much of a difference I think...

How do I run prog.x86GW directly from the command line? Remember that I am in Windows, I am supossed to be able to run only .exe's directly.

Thanks for your help!

The problem with lesson5 is caused by a mismatch between the content of the linker command script package/cfg/prog_p86GW.xdl and the option -T passed for it.
The linker command line for MinGW in XDCtools 3.22.01 is:

D:/MinGW/bin/mingw32-gcc.exe -Wl,--gc-sections -o prog.x86GW package/cfg/prog_p86GW.o86GW package/cfg/prog/prog.o86GW -Wl,-T,package/cfg/prog_p86GW.xdl  -Wl,-Map=package/cfg//prog.x86GW.map -lstdc++ -LD:/MinGW/lib

The option -T should not preceed that file, and the correct command line is:

D:/MinGW/bin/mingw32-gcc.exe -Wl,--gc-sections -o prog.x86GW package/cfg/prog_p86GW.o86GW package/cfg/prog/prog.o86GW package/cfg/prog_p86GW.xdl  -Wl,-Map=package/cfg//prog.x86GW.map -lstdc++ -LD:/MinGW/lib

The workaround requires editing a file ITarget.xs, in xdctools_3_22_01_21/packages/gnu/targets. The line 90

    if (target.BINVERS >= "2.19") {

should be replaced with

    if (target.BINVERS >= "2.19" && target.$name != "gnu.targets.Mingw") {

Once you fix that, you'll be able to run from the command line by simply typing
prog.x86GW

With this last workaround, the examples are now working perfectly fine. Thanks!

Just a last couple of questions: Are these corrections going to be integrated in a future release? Will xdctools properly support spaces and parenthesis in pathnames in a future release?

Thank you Sasha and Dave.
