Release history

V3.20 - 2013-06-12

• New text editor and source browser
  A new text editor and source browser are introduced in this version. The new features include auto completion, parameter hint, code folding, block select, block indent, bracket matching, zoom, and word/paragraph navigation. The new source browser adds features like Go to Declaration and Find All References to symbols.

• New license management system (LMS2)
  The new LMS used with this release introduces new features like commuter licenses, automatic license activation, and support for virtual servers. It is easier to administrate and a single installer concept enables easy transfer between all variants of IAR Embedded Workbench for a certain product by a license upgrade.

• Subversion
  The version control integration has been extended with support for Subversion (SVN).

V3.10 - 2011-03-03

New features

• Information Center
  A web-based navigation system that gives easy access to tutorials, product documentation, and example projects. Choose Help>Information Center to display the Information Center.

• visualSTATE build integration
  visualSTATE design projects can now be included in an IAR Embedded Workbench project. This enables the code generation facility of visualSTATE to be run automatically when needed as part of the normal IAR Embedded Workbench build chain.

• New devices
  Support has been added for these devices:
  SC14241, SC14281, SC14441, SC14443, SC14452, SC14481
  

V2.20 - 2009-04-02

New features

• Device-specific linker command files Device-specific linker command files for SC14xxx lnk14xxx.xcl are provided.

• Flash loader A flash loader is provided for the SC14480 device. It can be used as a template for other devices.

Program corrections

• The size of the Data24 heap can now exceed 64 Kbytes.

V2.12A - 2007-08-21

New features

• Support for automatic selection of default linker command file
  The IAR Embedded Workbench IDE now uses a device-specific linker command file per default, if present. For example, for SC14480, the file lnkcr16c14480.xcl will be used instead of lnkcr16c.xcl. If a device-specific linker command file does not exist, lnkcr16c.xcl will be used as in earlier versions.

Program corrections

• During installation, the installation program incorrectly overwrote the license number if an old network key was found. This has been corrected.

V2.11A - 2006-05-16

Program corrections

• The links to the IAR Embedded Workbench user guides did not work from the PRO launcher.
  [EW14651]

• When compiling a project with the coprocessor SC14430, the -v option uses an incorrect argument.
  [EW15691]

• Support files for SC14428 and SC14429 have been updated.
  [EW15694, EW15719, EW15983, EW16915]

V2.10A - 2004-05-06

Program corrections

• The tutorial file macros.s44 file was missing in the package.
  [EW14660]

• It is not possible to build a project with a C file and an assembler file with the same name as there object files will get the same name. Earlier the following unclear error message was given:
  Build error: Multiple tools process the same file.

  Now the error message has been changed to:
  Fatal Error[e62]: File name "<path>\file.r43" used for multiple files.
  [EW14821]

  The user guide is rewritten to reflect the changes in this version of the product. The new guide also has an improved structure with enhanced conceptual information and detailed step-by-step descriptions.

Program corrections

• Using the XLINK option Ignore Cstartup in library in the EW environment in combination with not including a new cstartup would incorrectly bring up a dialog box saying: "An unknown error occured running the linker".
