Lookking for free H8 tools - you are on the right track ... to be used in a
Linux or Windows environment ?
I will assume Windows - since I am NOT a Linux master!
- logging into http://www.kpitgnutools.com/
- first download and install HEW 3.0.6-ntc for KPIT GNU Tools with
Simulators (Found under the "Renesas Tools" menu).
- then download e.g. GNUH8 v0401 Windows Tool Chain (COFF) .. and install.
- You will need e.g. HDI to load your target
Now you will be having a professional developing environment - for free,
installed in less than 15minutes.
Yeahhh it is complicated if you never used such stuff before - but learning
by doing is the best way :-) ..... by the way which micro are you going to
use ... using an EVB or?

I didn't think it was that complex, but I've used gcc for
embedded development on other platforms before. I believe you
can use the gnu toolchains from kpit-cummins with the Hitachi
HEW IDE, but I've never tried it. You may want to take a look
here for more info on using Gnu tools on the H8 platform:

Hi
Where do I find a free (perhaps GNU) H8 C-compiler, easy to get started
with?
I have tried to download something, but it seems very complex. Is that
normal?
Best regards Jens
