Code Composer Studio Files and Variables

1.7.2 File Extensions
While using Code Composer Studio, you work with files that have the following
file-naming conventions:
❏
project.mak
. Project file used by Code Composer Studio to define a
project and build a program
❏
program.c
. C program source file(s)
❏
program.asm
. Assembly program source file(s)
❏
filename.h
. Header files for C programs, including header files for
DSP/BIOS API modules
❏
filename.lib
. Library files
❏
project.cmd
. Linker command files
❏
program.obj
. Object files compiled or assembled from your source files
❏
program.out
. An executable program for the target (fully compiled,
assembled, and linked). You can load and run this program with Code
Composer Studio.
❏
project.wks
. Workspace file used by Code Composer Studio to store
information about your environment settings
❏
program.cdb
. Configuration database file created within Code Composer
Studio. This file is required for applications that use the DSP/BIOS API,
and is optional for other applications. The following files are also
generated when you save a configuration file:
■
programcfg.cmd
. Linker command file
■
programcfg.h62
. Header file
■
programcfg.s62
. Assembly source file
Although these files have extensions of .s62 and .h62, they can also be
used with the TMS320C6701. DSP/BIOS does not need to use the
floating-point instructions supported by the TMS320C6701, therefore
only one version of the software is required to support both DSPs.
