Folks,
Is there a document on configuration management in CCS, especially as it relates to adding another target configuration for MSP430 builds?
I must be missing something -- nothing seems to work right for me (CCS 5.3.0.00090) I would like to add another configuration "Debug-Foo", which I can do, and then change it's target to a different processor (from MSP430F5528 to MSP430F5342). But when I add this config, it behaves strangely, e.g. the new ccxml and lnk...cmd files get added, but the compiler seems to think that the target is still a ...5528, i.e., the __MSP430F5342__ macro is defined in the source, but the build process takes no heed and doesn't bother to do any work to build the new target.
Pardon me if this sounds confused (I am :-) Experiments have led to multiple, inconsistent results. Hence the plea for a doc.
Can you point me at a suitable doc, or provide a concrete procedure for creating multiple debug and release configurations, with different MSP430 variants as targets, the appropriate macro names (e.g., __MSP430F5528__) to conditionally include source, and how to force building of the appropriate targets? What ccxml and lnk...cmd files should I expect to see? Where? With what annotated icons as to their status?
TIA,
Mike
