[news.eclipse.dsdp.rtsc] Re: Add new device (Leo) to catalog and new pla

[mjain@xxxxxx (Madhvi )]

I dont think I understood the workaround Dave is talking about. In my 
Platform.xdc (in ti.platforms.evmTNETV107X), I have the following:

readonly config xdc.platform.IExeContext.Cpu DSP = {        
       id:             "0",
       clockRate:      400.0,
       catalogName:    "ti.catalog.c6000",
       deviceName:     "TMS320CTNETV107X",
       revision:       "1.0",
   };
   
   readonly config xdc.platform.IExeContext.Cpu GPP = {
       id:             "1",
       clockRate:      400.0,
       catalogName:    "ti.catalog.arm",
       deviceName:     "TMS320CTNETV107X",
       revision:       "1.0",
   };


Now, my catalogName is ti.catalog.c6000 (for DSP). So if I dont put my 
device under ti.catalog.c6000, then I will have to modify the catalogName 
here to point to the new location? 

Also whats the difficulty/hurdle in adding the new device under ti.catalog?

Thanks
