Using the TI_EK_TM4C123GXL Project File
You should download and install the TivaWare software package from the TI website.
You should set the CrossWorks global macro TIVAWARE to the installation directory using the "Project | Macros" dialog for example TIVAWARE=C:/ti/TivaWare_C_Series-2.0.1.11577
The template project file (click to load project) for the TI_EK_TM4C123GXL is provided.
After the required project file is loaded:
- Right click in the solution node in the project explorer and select Save Solution As...
- Navigate to the appropriate example directory (for example C:/ti/TivaWare_C_Series-2.0.1.11577/boards/ek-tm4c123gxl/blinky) and specify a filename to save as.
- Use Build 'Project' to build the example.
- Note that you may need to rename interrupt handlers to match the names in the application. This can be done with a preprocessor define set at the project level, for example TIMER1A_IRQHandler=Timer1IntHandler.
