IDE Window Details

ZiLOG ZDS II features several windows that allow

viewing various aspects of ZDS

II tools while

working with a project.

Project Workspace Window

The Project Workspace window displays project

files. It uses a graphical hierarchy to display a

project’s source, dependency, and object files. This

graphic tree displays separate folders for source,

web, and dependency files. These files display in

the Project Workspace window when the project is

first opened.

Editor Window

The Editor window allows viewing and editing of

the files in a project. It includes a chroma-code lan

guage-sensitive editor that displays instructions,

comments, and assembler directives in different

colors. It also includes built-in search capabilities.

Double-click on an error message in the output

window to find the line containing the error.

Output Windows

Use the Output windows to view comments and

errors when building or compiling a project. Out

put windows contain tabs for Build, Debug and

Find, Message, and Command Output functions.

The Build tab displays the results of the assembler/

linker process. The Debug tab displays error mes

sages during the Debug and Build processes. The

two Find files hold the results of the Find in Files

Command, depending on which Find in Files tab

the user chooses. The Messages Output window

displays informational messages intended for the

user. The Command Output window displays all

text messages and output generated by the ZDS

IDE as it executes commands.

Status Bar

The Status Bar displays the current status of pro-

gram execution. Status messages include STOP,

STEP, and RUN. STOP mode halts the program.

STEP mode allows Step Into, Step Over, and Step

Out commands.

Debug Windows

ZDS II features several specialized windows that

allow viewing information that helps to debug

applications. These windows are only available

when running in Debug mode. Select the Debug

Windows submenu and the name of the Debug

window or click on the appropriate Debug win

dow’s icon in the toolbar. Figure 2 illustrates the

Debug Window.
