Configuring Goanna for the Texas Instruments Compiler
goanna Studio 2.9.0 automatically detects the Compiler tool chain used by your project (TI Build Tools, MinGW GCC, or other), and configures itself accordingly.
Likewise, if you change any Compiler options in your project (such as Target processor, Include Options, or Predefined Symbols), goanna Studio will automatically reconfigure itself to take into account the changes.
To see goanna’s compiler settings, select the goanna menu and click Project Properties….
To auto-detect your compiler tool chain, check Auto-Detect.
If auto-detection finds a different tool chain and compiler executables from what you expected, or if you wish to analyse your project under a different configuration from your build, you can uncheck Auto-Detect and change the Toolchain, C compiler executable, and C++ compiler executable to anything you like.
Known Issues
Include paths for Texas Instruments eXpress DSP Components (XDC) may not be auto-detected in the current version of goanna Studio.
If your project uses XDC components, you may see errors about being unable to find header files and goanna[PARSE] errors thereafter.
The workaround is to add the XDC include paths as Extra arguments in goanna’s Project Properties.
To find out the XDC include paths you are using, click Project Properties and find the XDCtools properties page.
Highlight the path(s) that you use in your project, and hit Ctrl+C to copy them.
Select the goanna Studio preferences page, click in Extra arguments, and hit Ctrl+V to paste them.
Edit them in the following format -IC:/ti/bios_6_33_04_39/packages -IC:/ti/xdctools_3_23_03_53/packages.
Click OK to apply the change.
