Component Manager

7.1Component Manager

Note:

The Component Manager is an advanced tool used primarily to customize or modify your installation. Use this tool only to resolve component interaction in a custom or multiple installation environment.

Multiple installations of the Code Composer Studio IDE can share installed tools. The Component Manager provides an interface for handling multiple versions of tools with these multiple installations.

The Component Manager window displays a listing of all installations, build tools, Texas Instruments plug-in tools, and third-party plug-in tools. When a node is selected in the tree (the left pane of the Component Manager), its properties are displayed in the Properties pane to the right (see Figure 7-1).

With the Component Manager, you can enable or disable tools for a particular Code Composer Studio installation. This functionality allows you to create a custom combination of tools contained within the IDE. The Component Manager also allows you to access the Update Advisor to download the most recent version of the tools from the web.
