Problem with TFS Everywhere plugin and TI CCS IDE

Question

Hi everybody,

I'm using TI CCS 5.1 IDE (which as far as I can see is based on Eclipse 3.7) for compiling C programs and the TFS Everywhere Eclipse plugin for source control.

Everything works OK expect one thing:

The CCS IDE has an option to build projects from the commandline.

This works fine when the projects are not under source control but when the project is under source control the build just freezes and never finishes.

(And just to make sure that it's realy the TFS plugin that's causing it when I disconnect the projects permenantly from the source control and try to build it works perfectly..)

Can anybody help me with this problem?

Thanks,

Nadav

BTW, I'm also asking this question on the TI support forums.

Answer 1

Hi Nadav,

It might be that the build process is trying to edit some files and those files are under source control so they are not checked out which means they are not writable. Please let me know if this is the case and we can work it from there.

Please let me know if you have any other questions/issues.

Thanks

Mireille

Answer 2

Hi Mireille,

How can I tell if the build process is trying to edit some files?

I don't know what the TI/Eclpse build process is doing...

Thanks,

Nadav

Answer 3

Hi Nadav,

If you are running on windows, one way to check is to use a tool called Process Explorer, it is part of windows sysinternals, it will tell you which program has ur files opened or updated.

Please let me know if you have any questions / issues.

Thanks

Answer 4

Hi Mireille,

I've checked the eclipsec.exe process using ProcessExplorer and I see it's got file handles open for the the directories when my projects are, but no files are open.

(the only file in my workspace/project that is open is <workspace>\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.cdt.core\.log but I don't see anything written there from today).

Looking in filemoniter I see that the eclipsec.exe file reads from the directories where my folders are, No files are opened.

It it reads from C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\ccsv5\eclipse\plugins\com.microsoft.tfs.client.eclipse_10.1.0.201112140701\com\microsoft\tfs\client\eclipse\TFSRepositoryProvider$TFSRepositoryProviderRuleFactory.class & C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\ccsv5\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.util_1.0.300.v20110502.jar

and then it freezes.

I don't see any files accesses, the only tcp connections the eclipse has open are to the licensing service, 0% CPU.

I hope this information will help you,

Nadav

Answer 5

Are you building directly inside the directory that contains an Eclipse project?  If so, it's likely that Eclipse is detecting each compiled file as a new file and notifying the TFS plug-in that new files exist.  At this point, the TFS plug-in for Eclipse will examine the new files and attempt to pend adds for those files in TFS.  If the build script also removes those files, if they were intermediate in the build process, then Eclipse would again notice those were detected.

This should not cause hangs, but it may cause things to be very slow indeed as the plug-in scans files that are being added, edited and deleted by your build and would cause significant disk contention.

Can you perform a build in a different directory?  If not, can you make sure that you have correctly identified the resources that are getting generated as part of a build and ensure that they are marked as derived resources, or they are set to be ignored as part of the .tpignore file.

If you're still having problems, the output of running the jstack command on your IDE may be helpful.

Answer 6

The output of the build is in a subdirectory of the project directory.

It can't be the the eclipse is detecting new compiled files becuase the compilation never starts!

As far as I can see Eclipse does not read any of the project files, nor does it start any sub processes (i.e. it does not run make or any compilers).

The eclipse seems to hang before build starts...

Here is the result of running JStack on the eclipse process:
