[Dspforum] --consultant issue and C question

[O'Connor, Sean R.]

I tried to use the --consultant last night and couldn't figure out how to read the output of the consultant.  Does it generate a file or will an automated window pop up?  Nothing seemed to happen when I turned on the --consultant flag in "Build Options".  The instructions from the built in help menu is CCS, told me to enable Profiling and look for the consultant tab (which I couldn't find).

Also, I wanted to use the CLPD User Register to access the DIP switches (in place of the built in DSK functions) using, for example, '#define SWITCHES *(unsigned volatile char *)(0x90080000); and then 'anding' the result with a mask, ie 'sw2 = SWITCHES & 0x20;' to uncover DIP switch #2's value.  I've used this approach on 8-bit micros, but the CCS compiler didn't like it.  Is there another (or a better) way to do this?

Thanks!
