Hello, Can anyone give me some feedback on the CrossWorks comiplier from Rowley Associates, I was using GCC but the gcc floating point operations take to much code space. I was thinking of purchasing CrossWorks and was hoping anyone using it could adivse if it is work the cost. Regards,

I am attempting to convert a working IAR embedded workbench project to crossworks CrossStudio and am having some difficulty with the difference between compilers. I believe I have worked out the interrupt issues and the program does run but it does not behave as expected, in fact it does not do anything I can see. The crossworks compiler did give several of the following warnings: "result of ...

Hi, Use the CrossWorks documentation. Perhaps a lost art, but there you go. The TI stuff is intended for assembly code use only, it isn't C callable. Therefore you will require the application of organic matte

I just tried CrossWorks with the eZ430 and my F2001 board, using the MSP-FET430UIF target. I was slightly surprised to find that it worked OK, as TI doesn't seem to state anywhere that the eZ430 is compatible with the USB FET. Leon

Hello All, My I cannot see it documemented how CrossWorks arranges (ie packs) its structures on an MSP430. I know that compilers for 'larger micros' often 'pad' the structure elements so that they fit on a 16bit/32 bit boundary. But I cannot see where this is documented for the CrossStudio Compiler and looking at my data (as memory) is not 'definitive'. It seems to me that there would be a

Hi, I'm trying to output a signed int with printf() in crossworks so that I can get some feedback in the debug window. It's working, but it's not displaying negative numbers properly, it's giving the two's compliment instead, i.e. 65534 instead of -1.. Is there a format string switch that I can use to force it to be in signed mode? I looked on the net, and in the crossworks docs, and

Thanks everyone for the feedback on the terminal programs. New problem with crossworks. I'm trying to redefine __putchar() to send out the SPI port, instead of to the virtual terminal. So according to the instructions, I should just be able to redirect the linker to use my function instead of the __putchar() function, right? I did this: -D___putchar=_my_putchar in the additional linker

Hi all, I am going to start a project that involves DSP, real time measurements and remote data communication with DNP3. Does anyone know which compiler I should use: IAR or Crossworks C compiler or some other good compilers out there? Which one is better suit for the job? I may also need real time debugging with symbolic debugger and simulator/emulator as well. Thanks.
