Workspace and Projects

A CCES workspace is a folder (e.g. c:\Users\anon\cces\2.7.0) that contains project resources and metadata. When projects are created or imported, details about that project are stored in the workspace. The workspace metadata also includes preferences set through the CCES Preferences dialog box and IDE window layouts. By default, CCES creates new projects within your workspace folder.

Each time you start CCES, you will be prompted for a workspace location. You can opt to default to a workspace directory by choosing to use a workspace directory as your default. You will not be prompted the next time you open CCES.

How to install or upgrade the ADuCM36x Device Family Pack (DFP) or ARM CMSIS Pack for CCES

CCES 2.7.0 does not comes with the ADuCM36x Device Family Pack (DFP) or the ARM CMSIS Pack file pre-installed.

Installing the ADuCM36x DFP

  • Switch to the CMSIS Pack Manager perspective by selecting Window | Perspective | Open Perspective | Other… | CMSIS Pack Manager.
  • Once opened, select Check for Updates on Web ( blue arrows on the toolbar ). This may take a minute or two.
  • Choose Analog Devices and ADuCM360 Series in the Devices View.
  • Select the ADuCM36x CMSIS Pack version (choose version 1.0.2 or higher) from the Packs View.
  • Click the Install Action.

Installing the ARM CMSIS Pack

  • Switch to the CMSIS Pack Manager perspective by selecting Window | Perspective | Open Perspective | Other… | CMSIS Pack Manager.
  • Once opened, select Check for Updates on Web ( blue arrows on the toolbar ), if you have not already done so.
  • Choose ARM in the Devices View.
  • Select the Generic and ARM.CMSIS from the Packs View, and select the current version (e.g. 5.1.0)
  • Click the Install Action.

Installing Locally Saved ADuCM36x Pack

Alternatively, the ADuCM36x Device Family Pack (DFP) files can be installed using a local downloaded copy.

After downloading the .pack files from the Keil website (https://www.keil.com/dd2/pack/), select the Import Packs button in the CMSIS Pack Manager's Packs View, choose the .pack file as shown in the screenshot below, and click Open.

You will be prompted to accept a license agreement and, after agreeing to it, the CMSIS-Pack file will be installed into CrossCore Embedded Studio's CMSIS-Pack installation directory (e.g. C:\Analog Devices\CrossCore Embedded Studio 2.7.0\ARM\packs\AnalogDevices).

How to create a new project for the ADuCM360

A project for ADuCM360 can be created using the New CrossCore Project Wizard. This wizard will guide you through the steps to create a new project.

  1. To create a new project, go to the menu bar and find File → New → CrossCore Project.
  2. Name the project, and then hit the Next button.
  3. Choose Processor family ARM and select Processor type ADuCM360.
    1. There is no Silicon Revision Option for the ADuCM360, so it defaults to “none”
  4. Project configuration allows you to add additional Add-ins to your project, such as Pin Multiplexing and changing the template language for a generated main function etc. Typically no configuration or add-ons are necessary.
  5. Finally, press Finish and the project will be created and you can begin writing your program.


How to add startup code and core components to a new project for the ADuCM360

A new or empty ADuCM360 project does not have startup code or a linker description file that maps code and data. It is necessary to add these components using the Run-time Environment (RTE) Configuration Editor.

CrossCore Projects created for Analog Devices' Cortex-M based processors, such as ADuCM360 include a system.rteconfig file. Opening this file within the IDE will open the RTE Configuration Editor. Components from the CMSIS-Pack, such as drivers and services, can be added to a project by selecting them in the editor and clicking Save.

At minimum, a new ADuCM360 project requires the Device::Startup, CMSIS::Core and Device::Global Configuration components to be added to the project.

  1. Double-click on the system.rteconfig to open the RTE Configuration Editor.
  2. Select Device::Startup, CMSIS::Core and Device::Global Configuration.
  3. Click Save (Ctrl+S)
  4. You can also choose Device::Startup and click the Resolve button to add dependant components


How to import existing projects into your workspace

There are three(3) methods for importing existing projects:

  1. Examples that you have saved to a local drive on your PC.
  2. Examples that come with the ADuCM36x Device Family Pack (DFP).
  3. Examples which are in the ADICUP360 GIT repository (most up to date content).

How to Import Existing Projects Saved to a Local Drive

  1. Select File | Import… from the CCES menu.
  2. A dialog will pop-up with several importing options, choose the General | Existing Projects into Workspace option, and click Next
  3. Select Browse in the dialog window and search for the saved project which is on your local drive.
  4. (Optional) If the Copy projects into workspace option is checked, the project will be copied to your workspace folder and the newly copied project will be opened and used. This preserves the original version of the project.
  5. Click Finish

How to configure the debug session for an ADuCM360 application

You will need to create a launch configuration to debug your ADuCM3029 program.

  1. If you have already built a project, select that project in the Project Explorer View.
  2. Right-click on the project and choose Debug As and Application with GDB and OpenOCD (Emulator)
  3. In the Target tab, choose Target (processor) and in the drop-down select Analog Devices ADuCM360
  4. In the Target tab, choose Interface and in the drop-down select ARM CMSIS-DAP compliant adapter
  5. In the Main tab, ensure that your project is selected in the Project entry box.
    1. If the correct project is not populated, click the Browse… button and choose the project. Note that this is optional and you only need to choose a project if you want the IDE to search a project for the built binaries (programs), otherwise you can leave this entry blank.
  6. In the Main tab, ensure your binary (program) is selected in the Application entry box.
    1. If the correct binary (program) is not populated, click on Search Project… and choose the binary (program) from those available in the chosen project.
    2. If your binary (program) is not populated and it was not built from a project in your workspace (i.e. you have a pre-built binary), then click the Browse… button and search for your pre-built binary (program). Click Open when you have found and selected the pre-built binary (program).
  7. In the Common tab, you can add the debug configuration to your menu bar shortcuts, for both Debug mode or Run mode by simply ticking the checkboxes.


How to start and stop debugging an ADuCM360 application

  1. Ensure that you have connected your EVAL-ADICUP360 board to your computer via the DEBUG USB port (P14 - the micro USB connected closest to the DC barrel jack).
  2. If you are already in the Debug Configurations dialog, then click Debug.
  3. If you are in the C Perspective, then you can launch the last Debug session by clicking the Beetle Debug button on the toolbar.
  4. You will be prompted to switch perspective to the Debug perspective. Click Yes. You can opt to not show this dialog again.
  5. If your binary (program) was built with semi-hosting enabled, then CCES will warn you that you need to re-build the program when you want to run the program without a debugger attached.
  6. If everything goes fine, in the Console window, you will see a report without errors.

  7. Your program's execution is stopped automatically at the first breakpoint which is at the beginning of main() loop. You can use the debug functions and features of the CCES environment. (Such as stepping through, breakpoints, register reads, variable values, etc.)
  8. To terminate a debug session, click on the red Stop button on the toolbar.

Windows Firewall Access

  1. If this is the first time you have launched OpenOCD, the Windows Firewall may pop-up a window asking for access. Click on “Allow Access”.

Linux USB Access

  1. When installing CCES for the first time, you'll be prompted to set up you system, so that you can access USB without root access. If you need to set up access to your USB after installation, perhaps because you answered no during the installation, then you can run the script in opt/analog/cces/2.7.0/Setup/setup_openocd_permissions.sh with sudo access.

How to create a Binary (.bin) or Intel Hex (.hex) file for an ADuCM360 application

Starting with CrossCore Embedded Studio (CCES) 2.8.0, the Artifact of your project build can now be a Binary or Intel Hex file.

  1. Ensure that your program is built with semi-hosting disabled by visiting Tools Settings | Linker | Libraries and change Semihosting support to nosys.specs or None, depending on your application set-up.
  2. Rebuild your application.
  3. Convert your application into Binary (.bin) or Intel Hex (.hex) format by visiting Tools Settings once more.
  4. Select the Build Artifact tab.
  5. Select Binary (or Intel Hex) as the Artifact Type.
  6. Apply and Close
  7. Rebuild your application.

How to debug programs using ADuCM362 and ADuCM363 Evaluation Boards

The ADuCM362/ADuCM363 evaluation board comes with an Segger J-Link OB emulator which is not supported out of the box by CrossCore Embedded Studio (CCES). However, using Segger's JLinkGDBServer, we can still create and debug our ADuCM362/3 projects using CCES. The following are instructions on how to set up your Debug configuration.

  1. Download and install Segger J-Link Software and Documentation Pack:
  2. Run JLinkGDBServer:
    • Open C:\Program Files (x86)\SEGGER\JLink_V512f\JLinkGDBServer.exe on Windows.
    • Run LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/SEGGER/JLink /opt/SEGGER/JLinkGDBServerExe on Linux.
  3. In the JLinkGDBServer application, choose your Target device. For example, ADuCM362.
  4. Click OK to run the JLinkGDBServer.
  5. Next create a CCES Debug configuration for your ADuCM362 project/program:
  6. In the Target tab:
    • Change the command from openocd to the path to PackChk (e.g. C:\analog\cces\2.8.1\ARM\packs\ARM\CMSIS\5.3.0\CMSIS\Utilities\Win32\PackChk.exe) or another executable that will run.
      • We specify a different executable because running OpenOCD will fail and it will cause the launch configuration to terminate.
      • It is not necessary to set your target to be Analog Devices ADuCM36x or your interface to Segger J-Link but it may help you when identifying your Debug configuration later on.
  7. In the Main tab:
    • Ensure that your project and/or program has been added.
  8. In the Debugger tab:
    • Ensure that Use remote target is checked.
    • And that your port number is set to 2331.
  9. In the Startup tab:
    • Add the following to Initialization commands:
      monitor flash device = ADuCM362
monitor flash download=1
monitor flash breakpoints = 1
monitor clrbp
monitor endian little
monitor reset
monitor halt
monitor sleep 10
monitor speed auto
    • Add the following to Run commands:
      monitor reg r13 = (0x00000000)
monitor reg pc = (0x00000004)
break main
continue
  10. Click Debug to start loading and running your program.
