The standalone GUI Composer (c:\ti\GUI Composer) does not have the most recent Eclipse plugins which are available in the CCS v5.5 Eclipse build (e.g. to support Program UART mode). We need to get a standalone GUI Composer version with the same version of updated davinci.gc 1.2.1, dojo 1.8.1 and maqetta plugins which are found in CCS v5.5.
We cannot use launcher.exe to launch webapps which have been installed in c:\ti\ccsv5\webapps folder under the CCSv5 root (double-clicking on launcher.exe does nothing). For launcher.exe to work properly, I understand that we need to get a standalone GUI Composer version that will properly load .unzipped GUI Composer projects which have been exported and deployed in c:\ti\GUI Composer\webapps. But at present, the newer GUI Composer UART features in CCS v5.5 can only be used in Preview Mode or as installed plugin applications (started from View/Applications... menu). The standalone v5.4 GUI composer eclipse version doesn't seem to be able to handle the same projects as CCS v5.5 because of plugin incompatibilities with davinci gc, dojo and maqetta.
Finally, it would be nice if we didn't have to manually edit the URL path in index.html to avoid HTTP 404 file not found errors. I.E. Exported unzipped project folders in the webapps folder should work out of the box if at all possible with no hand editing of libsettings or index.html for the plugin paths.
<script type='text/javascript'>
function _switchGCToLibIndex(){
var newURL = 'lib/davinci.gc_1_2_0/WebContent/gc/templates/program/index.html';
var original_href = window.location.href;
. . . etc.
Cheers,
Gordon
P.S. The problem with launcher.exe not working (which mandated a separate standalone GUI composer) was discussed previously in another thread: http://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/p/220911/777815.aspx#777815.
