free C compiler for HCS12 ?
Started by ●April 14, 2005
Hi everyone,
is there anyone know a free C compiler for HCS12 ?
I am using S12Compact Kit.
It take so long to program in Assembly language.
Thankx in advance,

How much is your time worth? $20 an hour? If you save 10 hours, you can buy
a commercial compiler

Get ICC12 (from image craft) evaluation version and you will see how good it is and will be glad to pay for the standard version, which is just a couple hundred $.
If you are still cheap, go look for GCC, that one is free but I personaly don't like it. Salvador Tenorio __________________________________________________

If you plan on using NoICE (which I do recommend), buy the compiler
revision that supports symbolic debugging of structures and arrays of
structures. It's more money but again, time is money. I didn't and wished
I had but the budget didn't allow an upgrade. If I were to do it over
again, I would do it that way.

How much code do you expect to compile, up to 32K is free with
codewarrior.

There is a port of the GNU C++ compiler. I've been using it and it
works great. There is also a IDE for it call eGNU that makes life easier.
Here's the link,

I would also stay away from codewarrior, IMHO imagecraft compilers are way better and easier to use plus support for NoICE is there. Also, support is quick, good and given by the compiler creator himself.
If you needed to compile more than 32k then you would have to pay big bucks for the full version of codewarrior, again, this is just my oppinion. Don't want to start a religious wars.
BTW, I work for Motorola and am not recommending codewarrior, wonder why...mhhh. ---------------------------------

I have been an Imagecraft user in the past, and am presently using CW
32K.
Having been hooked by the free eval and spent time learning enough about
CW to get me into trouble there I am now. At this risk of sparking a
fire, has anyone done any real evaluation of code quality between the
two systems? I ran into one code generation bug, and of course am very
worried about any complex code problems I have now.
Does the Imagecraft system support P&E tools? - I could not confirm this
from the Imagecraft site.

Send an email directly to Richard (I think it is richard@rich... or look for support emails on their site) and he will be very prompt to answer any questions you may have.

The ICC12 code generator is a wee bit old and is undergoing an upgrade. We
do use the HC12/S12 instructions, but it can be improved (which we are
doing). Nevertheless, many commercial applications have been written using
ICC12 so it's no slouch.

Yes and No. Yes that we generate the older .map file. Despite what P&E
sales may tell you, their debuggers support this format. We are working
with one of their guys to support our DBG format. More updates as it
becomes available. >
