    Post modification of C programming code.

    I have a C code working for Texas Instruments C6x EVM board (Evaluation module) and i want to modify it to work with Texas Instruments TMS320VC5510 DSK board (Starter Kit).

    OK, you've stated your intent, but what is your question?
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    You have my permission to go ahead and make the changes.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    How much cash are you willing to offer in advance?
    Right 98% of the time, and don't care about the other 3%.

    If I seem grumpy or unhelpful in reply to you, or tell you you need to demonstrate more effort before you can expect help, it is likely you deserve it. Suck it up, Buttercup, and read this, this, and this before posting again.

    No idea about what?

    It seems to me you have no idea why you chose the course you're on, which is a much bigger problem than any single assignment.

    Why do I get the feeling you just "found" some code for your C6x (or were just given it - it doesn't matter, you didn't write it), and you want someone else to bust their ass converting it to TMS320VC5510 just so you can claim the credit.

    Unless this is some trivial "read a switch / flash a light" program, you'll need:
    - good knowledge of the old hardware.
    - good knowledge of the new hardware.
    - good to excellent knowledge of embedded C programming in general.
    - fair to good knowledge of the nature of the application (signal filtering, or whatever it is your code does on DSP hardware).

    If you can't claim 3 out of 4 (you wouldn't be here if it were 4 out of 4), then this is going to be hard work for you.

    If you're at 0 out of 4 (clueless), then you should take the assignment back to your boss/tutor and confess that you're simply not able to do this assignment.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
