PDF documents describing the CCS tools (CCS IDE, the assembler, the C compiler, the linker, and the

librarian) are in the msp430\documentation folder. A Code Composer Studio specific Wiki page (FAQ) is

available, and the Texas Instruments E2E Community support forums for the MSP430 and Code

Composer Studio v5 provide additional help besides the product help and Welcome page.

PDF documents describing the IAR tools (Workbench C-SPY, the assembler, the C compiler, the linker,
