8.10.1, May 2011

New features

• Timeline Window
  A new Timeline window in the simulator allows for graphically correlated visualization of the call stack and the interrupt log, plotted against time.

Program corrections

• EW22102
  Accessing an uninitialized generic pointer variable in the simulator could cause the IDE to terminate. This has been corrected.

V7.60.1, June 2010

Corrected problems

• EW20634
  Simulation of interrupts with a higher priority rank than 3 no longer causes C-SPY to issue an error message.

V7.51A, March 2009

Corrected problems

• EW20502
  Variables declared with the __sfr attribute was mistakenly considered as IDATA variables by C-SPY. This has been corrected.

V7.50A, June 2008

No changes.

V7.40A, February 2008

Corrected problems

• EW19310, EW19358
  Bit variables are now correctly displayed in the debugger watch window.

• EW19050
  The #CYCLECOUNTER symbol is now displayed in C-SPY as an unsigned 64-bit value.

• EW18420
  The Live Watch window is no longer available when debugging on hardware that does not support this feature.

• EW17567
  Variables with memory attributes specified cannot be viewed in debug windows like the Watch and Memory windows.

• EW19350
  The simulator has been rewritten for the Banked code model, fixing several issues. Notably the following:

  • Setting a breakpoint in the root bank will now be visible if another bank is active.
    
  • A breakpoint in the root bank will now trigger even if another bank is active.
    
  • Labels in the root bank will now be displayed even if another bank is selected.

V7.30B, September 2007

No changes.

V7.30A, August 2007

Corrected problems

• EW19044
  Incorrect SP out of bounds reported when using non UBROF output format.

• EW18917
  The stack plugin would sometimes erroneously report that the stack pointer was outside the stack segment.

7.21A, May 2007

Corrected problems

• EW18287
  Reading the PSW.P as a bit in instructions is now working correct.

7.20D, May 2006

New features

• The default Stack guard behaviour has changed in the GUI.

Corrected problems

• Smaller update of the debuggers has been done for this release. Most updates have been done to improve the stability and speed of the various debuggers.

7.20C, Jan 2006

Corrected problems

• EW16227
  The dissassembler generates the wrong relative address for the DJNZ instruction. The generated code is correct but not the displayed address in the dissassembler window.

7.20B, Nov 2005

New features

• The simulator does not count the code bytes in the kickstart version any more. This makes it possile to use the kickstart version as a unlimied assembler development tool.

7.20A, Oct 2005

Corrected problems

• EW17229
  The file custom_formats.dat was missing in the previous release and thus the STL containers were not displayed at all levels.

• EW16225
  The simulated data brekpoints now work for all memory types, not just for IDATA.

7.10A, July 2005

New features

• Breakpoints window
  A new non-modal Breakpoints window has been added.

• STL containers display
  Smart display of STL containers during debugging.

• Auto-display debugger window added.

• Data coverage added.

6.11A, October 2004

No changes.

6.10A, February 2004

Initial release.
