I don’t have that board and so have no experience with it.
See the documentation on Embedded Coder Support Package for Texas Instruments C2000 Processors (link) for details on R2017b support for it.
It would certainly not surprise me if there are significant version differences between R2012x and R2017a, so also see the Release Notes (link) for versions between your current version and R2017a. That will help you thread your way through the interim version changes. I encourage you to read all of them.
