I’d like to get FreeRTOS running on an MSP430 processor using Code Composer Essentials v3.1.  I found an example of just this at http://www.westmorelandengineering.com/toc.htm.  Specifically I’m working with http://www.westmorelandengineering.com/FreeRTOS_MSP430_CCE/FreeRTOS_Demo.zip.  When I try to open it with CCE I get an error that the workspace “was not created by this version of Code Composer”.  So I tried to import the project and I get an error “The Managed Make project could not be read because of the following error: Project type com.ti.ccstudio.managedbuild.ui.programTargetID not found.  Managed Make functionality will not be available for this project.”

I’m wondering what my problem is and how I can get the project to build, or should I go about this a different way?

Is V3.1 the latest version? Normally backward compatibility is not an issue.

If V3.1 is the latest then ask westmorelandengineering.com.

It dos appear there is a version 4.0 out but it was released relatively recently and the project from westmorelandengineering has a date from September of 2009.  So I imagine it was made with an older version.  I do have an email out to wetmorelandengineering.
