TMS470 Code Composer Studio Version 1.31


TMS470 CCS v1.31 is a patch release for TMS470 CCS v1.30.  The primary intent
of this release is to incorporate complete support for the TMS320C5000 family
of DSPs.  When users configure their systems for debugging in a heterogeneous
(mixed CPU types) environment, a single debugger is used for all targets.
The TMS470 debugger is used when the system is configured to debug both TMS470
and TMS320C5000 targets, even though the user is required to install both
TMS470 (v1.30) and C5000 (v1.20) tools.  The v1.30 release of the TMS470 tools
did not completely support all of the features of the TMS320C5000 family,
so users configured for co-emulation lost some functionality when debugging
the C5000.

Please see the release notes for TMS470 CCS v1.30 for a detailed discussion
of the issues involved with installing both TMS470 and TMS320C5000 tools
on the same machine. This patch addresses many of the issues related to
installing the TMS470 tools over the TMS320C5000.

This release also picks up several general bug fixes.  These are outlined below.


Installation Instructions:

Both the TMS470 Code Composer Studio v1.30 and TMS320C5000 CCS v1.20
should already be installed.

1. Unzip the downloaded TMS470 CCS v1.31 file (ccs470_131.zip) in a temporary
   directory on your local machine.
2. Run Setup.exe located in the temporary directory.

The installation program will prompt for input as needed.
