  The Trace Window Settings dialog box, which can be accessed from the Trace window, provides the following options::

  • Data trace
  • Instruction trace
  • Data, instruction, and other event traces
  • Trace condition and trace extension condition
  • Trace buffer size and mode
  • Trace regions start and length

Program corrections

• Default device description file (*.ddf) was not based on the CR16C co-processor. This is now corrected.
  [EW18300]

New features

• Support for new devices.

• The zones DIP_RAM and DIP_RAM_2, defined in the ddf file, are now disassembled as DIP assembler.

Program corrections

  [EW15830]

• No single stepping after a software breakpoint has been used. This is now corrected.
  [EW15831]

• Using CLK100 as clock for an OS caused STEP/GO problem.

New features

• Support for CR16CPlus devices, including 8 extra hardware breakpoints and Realtime Code Profiling.

Program corrections

V1.20A - 2003-05-06

New features

• A Getting started example for the CR16C Nexus debugger has been added to the product. See part 6 in the CR16C IAR Embedded Workbench IDE User Guide.

• A new system macro has been introduced in the IAR C-SPY Nexus Debugger:

            __writeMemoryByteAfterDownload(value, address, "Memory")

  It writes the byte value at memory location address directly after downloading, before any other memory read or write accesses have been performed.
  This new system macro is not available in the IAR C-SPY Simulator.

V1.13A - 2002-10-04

Program corrections

• A fatal error was received if the __writeMemoryByte() system macro was executed from within the debugger setup macro execUserPreload().
