What's New in C166 Version 7.05

• [C166 Compiler]
  • Corrected: the error 'illegal use of near/far/huge' was issued on some valid statements. For example:

    typedef unsigned long ul_v;
    typedef unsigned long ul_a[];
    
    char foo ( ul_v *pul, const ul_a far par, unsigned char uc );   // erroneous generated error message
    
    char foo ( ul_v *pul, const ul_a far par, unsigned char uc ) {
    pul;
    par;
    uc = 1;
    return (2);
    }
    

  • Corrected: by using optimization level 6 or greater the following statement results in an endless loop:

    void foo (void) {
     unsigned short us;
     volatile unsigned char uc = 0;
    
     for ( us = 0; us <= 0; us++ ){
       uc++;
      }
    }
    

• [A166 Macro Assembler]
  • Corrected: a problem when using mutated vowels within macro statements.
• [System Viewer]
  • Added: System Viewer description files for Infineon XC2000 devices in folder ..\C166\SFD\.
  • Added: System Viewer description files for Infineon XE16x ULE\LE devices in folder ..\C166\SFD\.
• [Debugger]
  • Added: unique tick marks for breakpoints.
  • Added: dialogues which refers to System Viewer window.
• [AGSI Debug Interface]
  • Added: CriticalSection to time-watch functions to avoid deadlocks when time-watches are set via AGSI asynchronously.
  • Added: return error address of function SetOpc.
  • Updated: notification messages for AGSI/AGDI functions.
• [Infineon DAS Driver]
  • Added: help buttons for flash algorithms.
• [Device support]
  • Added: new flash programming algorithms for Infineon XC2000 devices in folders ..\C166\Flash\XC2xxx\, ..\C166\Flash\XC2xxx_L_D_X\, ..\C166\Flash\XC2xxx_H_C_X\, and ..\C166\Flash\XC2xxx_M_A_X\. These algorithms use a pattern check function to speed up flash download.
• [µVision4]
  This C166 release comes with µVision V4.22.00.
