High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1. Release Note Notes on Using the High-performance Embedded Workshop This section shows notes on using the High-performance Embedded Workshop. 1.1 Network drive 1.1.1 Time discrepancies between computers The time kept by a computer differs between computers. The time when a source file or output file is updated depends on the computer on which the file has been saved.
PAGE 3
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1.3 Release Note File dependencies scanned The High-performance Embedded Workshop scans an include file of a source file to show dependencies of source files on the “Projects” tab of the “Workspace” window and to decide whether to build a file or not. Even though the source code is syntactically correct, an error message may appear indicating that an include file has not been correctly recognized as a dependent file.
PAGE 4
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 Release Note When [Support dependency scan of preprocessor statement] has been selected, include files written in C/C++ source files are not correctly detected as dependent files in the following cases: (ii) The toolchain included in either of the compiler packages listed below is in use and in a preprocessor statement contains a conditional statement for comparing characters. • • • • • • • • C/C++ Compiler Package for SuperH Family V.5.1 to V.9.
PAGE 5
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 Release Note Include files written in assembly source files are not correctly detected as dependent files in the following case: (v) A source file for the AS30, AS308, or AS100 contains directive "..FILE" or "@" for specifying an include file. Example: .INCLUDE ..FILE@.inc <- This leads to an error and sample.inc will not be detected as dependent files. 1.4 Navigation facilities 1.4.
PAGE 6
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1.4.3 Release Note Warning message by "C++ Classes" of the Navigation facilities When "C++ Classes" of the navigation facilities is enabled (checked), the warning message will appear (figure 1.2). While this item is enabled, the navigation facilities run in the background. The CPU usage of your host computer may be shown as nearly 100% (depending on the performance of the computer) and the reaction of the High-performance Embedded Workshop may be slow. Figure 1.
PAGE 7
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1.8 Release Note Specifying the directory on an Option dialog box Using the [Build] menu of the High-performance Embedded Workshop, you can launch an option dialog box on which you can specify options to a tool such as a compiler. Especially, when “Custom directory” is selected in the “Relative to” field on a dialog box as shown in figure 1.3, an absolute path must be specified in the “Directory” field. Figure 1.3 Dialog Box to Specify a Directory Path 1.
PAGE 8
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1.11.2 Release Note Deregistration of components and tools After you have deregistered a component or tool from the High-performance Embedded Workshop by clicking on the [Unregister] button in the [Tools Administration] dialog box, the component or tool will not be registered to the High-performance Embedded Workshop even if you install a software product including that component or tool.
PAGE 9
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1.12.4 Release Note Disassembly window When [Step] or [Go] is executed while the disassembly and editor windows show data in source mode and mixed mode, respectively, the program counter (PC) icon ( ) may be placed at an incorrect position in the disassembly window. If you wish to start debugging with source mode selected in the disassembly window, be sure to select source mode in the editor window. 1.12.
PAGE 10
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1.13.5 Release Note Stack Trace window Inline functions that have been expanded as intended are not displayed in the history of function calls. 1.13.6 Reference of variables (1) Local variables in inline functions While the PC is pointing to an address in an inline function, you cannot use the windows or functions given below to reference the parameters of functions or the values of local variables defined in functions.
PAGE 11
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1.13.8 Release Note Configure Overlay dialog box This dialog box may look as if a section adjacent to an overlay section is also adjacent to another overlay section. If overlay sections are allocated as (1), (2), and (3) in example 1 and then re-allocated after build as in example 2, the [Configure Overlay] dialog box will be as shown in example 3.
PAGE 12
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 Release Note (3) Debug Settings dialog box • Do not perform automatic target connection The target is connected when [Debug Settings] have been completed irrespective of the setting for the [Do not perform automatic target connection] check box on the [Options] tab.

High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1.17.4 Release Note Command batch file load timing (Debug Settings dialog box) If you have specified a batch file for [Command batch file load timing] on the [Options] page, the restrictions listed below apply. In such cases, consider the use of other means via the GUI, e.g. menu options or toolbar buttons, instead of commands.
PAGE 16
High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.09 1.17.6 Release Note Specifying a file in the command line To specify a file in the command line, use a placeholder (excluding TCL). If you wish to specify a directory not included in the placeholder, specify an absolute path. After specifying the absolute path, this file will not be correctly found when it is in another host computer or environment where the path content is different. In such cases, specify the file again. FILE_LOAD ELF/DWARF2 $(CONFIGDIR)\\demo.
