Arch Linux User Repository

How did you find that out?

I found a solution to the swt problem. Go to <ccs_install_dir>/ccs/eclipse, open the file ccstudio.ini in your editor and remove the first two lines i.e

-vm 
jre/lib/server/libjvm.so

Now you should be able to run ccstudio just fine.

It might be worthwhile looking into making this into an AppImage or Flatpak. That would solve the issue and also make it work on every distro. I've been reading about what it would take to make it a Flatpak and it's definitely closer to "possible with some effort" than "needs a whole hacker team" to make happen.

Hey folks -- I created a topic on the E2E forum for this issue. Hopefully TI can shed some light on what's going on.

https://e2e.ti.com/support/tools/code-composer-studio-group/ccs/f/code-composer-studio-forum/1166266/code-composer-v11-and-v12-not-working-on-linux

Having the same error as Kris-G both when using this package and installing v11 or v12 manually from the TI website. This is a huge issue for me as I use CCS professionally. I've had to start using a Windows VM in the meantime which... sucks.

I've been meaning to post on TI's E2E forum about this, just haven't gotten around to it yet. I've used versions 8, 9 and 10 on Linux with no issues whatsoever. Even version 10 works fine on Arch (or it did, I uninstalled it when I saw there were updates and haven't tried re-installing it).

We should start a forum discussion about the swt-pi4 dependecy

An error occured when executing /opt/ccstudio/ccs/eclipse/ccstudio after pacman -Syu. So the required swt-pi4-gtk-4942r22 is not included in the package?

Arch provided virtual package ttf-font to specify need ttf font. \ And you do better to use sysusers.d to add the group as Arch official repo does.

After succesfully setting up this program, it creates a "ti" folder at "$HOME" every time is launched, with nothing inside it. Is there a way to avoid that?

Thanks for the PKGBUILD!

@troytjh thanks for your fix... I pushed your correction so now it runs smoothly (also tested with an helper like yay)
