First, don't include the HTML junk in newsgroup postings.  You add
bulk and clutter without adding any useful content.

I don't know about IAR, but Imagecraft makes provision for a
local version of putchar() which outputs characters to a real
or simulated serial port.  printf() and the other character
output functions all perform their output via putchar().

Oh Well, it seems to be past my bedtime...

Please note that we're talking about a *simulator* here.  Time is 
simulated, too, i.e. it's not real.  Thus there can be no realtime 
dependence on anything other than the (simulated) peripherals.

But entirely untypical for simulators.

Not even to mention that using printf() tends to be seriously 
incompatible with the idea of keeping the debugged application realtime.

One reason could be that the code has realtime dependecies to the 
environment. That would be typical for a realtime system :-)

What on earth would you want to go and do that for?  You have a 
simulator/debugger, so why resort all the way back to printf debugging?

I am trying to debug my code via the built-in IAR simulator. Is there =
any way to using the printf statement in the source code to send =
characters to terminal I/O during simulation?=20
such as :=20

printf("hello world");=20
printf("PORT2 =3D %d", P2IN); //read and display port 2 pins=20

Has anybody used the statements above or something similar before? =
Please share your idea or suggestions,

 Thanks in advance,=20
