Code Composer Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) for TI's microcontrollers and processors. It comprises a suite of tools used to develop and debug embedded applications. Code Composer Studio is available for download across Windows, Linux and macOS desktops. It can also be used in the cloud by visiting the TI Developer Zone.

Code Composer Studio includes an optimizing C/C++ compiler, source code editor, project build environment, debugger, profiler and many other features. The intuitive IDE takes you through each step of the application development flow. Familiar tools and interfaces make getting started simple.

Code Composer Studio combines the advantages of the Eclipse and Theia frameworks with advanced capabilities from TI resulting in a compelling feature-rich environment. The cloud-based Code Composer Studio enables development in the cloud without the need to download and install large amounts of software.

Code Composer Studio is going through a major update. As part of this major update Code Composer Studio is transitioning from the Eclipse application framework to the much more modern Theia framework. Code Composer Studio Theia is now available for most devices and additional features are being added with each release. The final planned Eclipse-based release is expected to be CCS 12.8.

Code Composer Studio includes C/C++ compilers tailored to get maximum performance and optimal code size for TI devices. Compilers for proprietary architectures such as MSP430TM, C2000TM and DSPs are included as well as a compiler for Arm-based microcontrollers. The TI Arm Clang compiler combines LLVM and Clang with TI added features such as link time optimization to provide exceptional code size for TI Arm-based microcontrollers.

Resource Explorer provides access to the resources needed for embedded development. Quickly access examples, training, software development kits and documentation tailored to the device being used. Resource Explorer is included with Code Composer Studio and is also available in the cloud at

SysConfig is an intuitive and comprehensive tool for configuring pins, peripherals, drivers, radios and other components. SysConfig simplifies configuration challenges and accelerates software development.

Open a codebase from any environment and get to work right away. Use MSBuild with the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler or a 3rd party toolset like CMake with Clang or mingw to build and debug your code right in the IDE. Benefit from a first-class CMake experience.

Game DevelopmentJoin the many AAA top game studios already using Visual StudioCreate high-performance games with DirectX to run on Windows devices, or build cross-platform games with a top game engine, such as Unity, Unreal, and Cocos. Join the many wildly-successful game studios that already use Visual Studio to boost your productivity with Visual Studio 2022 and the world-class debugger.

Unparalleled Debugging and Diagnostics Write the best, bug-free code Do all the basics like setting breakpoints and stepping through your code, then get more advanced with variable visualization, performance profiling, debugging any local or remote process, and multi-threaded application debugging. Run to click, edit your live code and continue executing without having to rebuild.

Visualize your code with syntax colorization, guidelines, code tooltips, Class View, or Call Hierarchy. Navigate to any code symbol by reference, definition, declaration, and more. Autocomplete your code as you type, quickly repair problems, and refactor your code to your needs. Analyze your code for common issues. Save time that could be better spent.

2. Sometimes Xcode gets confused about which target or build it's showing error messages for. (If you switch targets, existing error messages should be preserved but hidden until you return the same target.) This may prevent it from showing the errors you want.

4. Sometimes it's just easier to force Xcode to compile the file you're looking at. You can do this from the menu: Product -> Perform Action -> Compile. This almost always gets you the error messages almost at once. ? I have this mapped to Command-K because I use it so often.

I know this is an old thread but I wanted to leave an answer as I didn't find anything anywhere else. My problem was that Xcode (v8.2.1) was not showing me the current compliation errors but was showing old ones for code that I'd deleted.

I looked in the logs for the the build process and found reference to where Xcode places temporary/derived files. I figured it must be caused by state in a file since the problem was persisting even when I restarted Xcode and after I had run a "clean".

I have what I believe is the same problem... I have buildtime errors in my playground code and they appear as such in the Issue Navigator, in the Debug Console, and even in the error count icon in the Header bar... but the errors do NOT show up as red exclamation marks next to the line number of the incorrect lines, nor does the error message appear overlaying the editor code on the right. There just is simply no inline, in-editor markup for errors; even though published books such as "Swift Programming" by Mathias and Gallagher very clearly show such error markup in their book. Further, this is just within a playground so far, so I don't believe the comments about Product Clean Build Folder and the like are relevant (at least this option remains greyed out). I am using Xcode version 8.3.2 (8E2002) and Xcode Preferences... General Show live issues is checked. I've searched for other possibly related optional settings that might control this behavior, but I have not yet found one obviously related and affecting it.

A R C I'm having the same problem. Tried to reinstall XCode twice already and there's no improvement. I also posted this question in other place of the developer forum but haven't heard about any solution for this.

Hi, did you ever figure out an answer for this? I am having the same issues and it makes troubleshooting the code very inefficient. Haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling yet but going to do that next.

In my case, I had a company ID (personal LLC company - sole developer) that Xcode said had exprired and needed to log in. I don't really remember when/how this ID was created, but there really is no associated login with Apple for it that I am aware of. I deleted the ID. The company is still listed under "Team" on the Accounts tab.

Complementing the previous answers, one big difference between both is that Visual Studio Code comes in a so called "portable" version that does not require full administrative permissions to run on Windows and can be placed in a removable drive for convenience.

VS can literally compile code, build apps and so on, it's a huge IDE like Unity itself or XCode. VSCode is indeed "just" a full-featured text editor. VSCode is NOT a compiler: VSCode is literally "just a text editor".

As far as I can see, every single feature in VS which you use in Unity is present in VSCode. (So, code coloring, jump to definitions, it understands/autocompletes every single thing in Unity, it opens from Unity, double clicking something in the Unity console opens the file to that line, etc etc)

Unity is an IDE so you just need a text editor, and that is what VSCode is. VSCode is hugely better in both speed and preferences. The only possible problem - multiple-windows are a bit clunky in VSCode!

If you are using VS with Unity. There is an infuriating problem where often VS will try to open twice, that is you will end up with two or more copies of VS running. Nobody has ever been able to fix this or figure out what the hell causes it. Fortunately, this problem never happens with VSCode.

In VS, you get button tools and window toolbar tools and all that fancy stuff. In VSC, you have to code the whole thing from scratch. I recommend VSC for people who are just learning to code but VS for advanced devs.

In short, VSCode heavily promotes (Microsoft's) TypeScript compiler, and bundles first-class support for the language, which makes the editor web-centric, while Visual Studio is primarily used for Microsoft's native, C-family, Windows/XBox stuff.

I'm an ASP.net developer in Visual Studio for ten years. When I see in the Stackoverflow survey ( -most-popular-technologies-integrated-development-environment) that VS Code is the first IDE of choice, I decided to give it a try by using it as my main develop environment, and here's the result after one month:

I can say if only VS Code has a scalable and stable IntelliSense like VS has, I would keep it as my first choice of IDE for dotnet. Omnisharp (VS Code C# IntelliSense) is satisfying for small projects, but as the workspace becomes bigger (for example, when you have more than one projects in your workspace), the instability starts to become a problem.

I still use VS Code for small dotnet projects and also as a DB Client, powershell ISE, python, etc. because of its lightness, feature richness, customizability and having such an alive community and develop team.

Compiling and running a Java application on Mac OSX, or any major operating system, is very easy. Apple includes a fully-functional Java runtime and development environment out-of-the-box with OSX, so all you have to do is write a Java program and use the built-in tools to compile and run it.

The first step is writing a simple Java program. Open up a text editor (the built-in TextEdit app works fine), type in the following code, and save the file as "HelloWorld.java" in your home directory.

For example, if your username is David, save it as "/Users/David/HelloWorld.java". This simple program declares a single class called HelloWorld, with a single method called main. The main method is special in Java, because it is the method the Java runtime will attempt to call when you tell it to execute your program. Think of it as a starting point for your program. The System.out.println() method will print a line of text to the screen, "Hello World!" in this example.
