3.4.2. HEW (High-performance Embedded Workshop)

HEW provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that integrates the software development tools and

includes the C-compiler, assembler, linker, debuggers and editor. E8a debugger components are

included with this install of HEW.

The evaluation version of the M16C C-compiler provides the same functionality as the commercial version

except that link size will be restricted to 64 Kbytes after 60 days from when you begin using the compiler.

Contact your local sales representative if you wish to purchase a full license.

FDT is a Windows based application that can be used to program the flash on R8C/25 MCU's via a COM

port on your PC or through a debugger. FDT (Flash Development Toolkit) is installed by default as part

of HEW. For using this kit, we program the R8C/25 chip with the E8a debugger within HEW, but FDT is a

handy utility for other situations, such as self-programming through the UART, or with external flash chips.

Included with HEW 4.0 and later is the Renesas AutoUpdate utility. This utility can be configured to

search our website automatically for updates of the Renesas tools installed on your PC. See the HEW

User's Manual on how to use this feature.

The YMCRPR8C25 includes a full set of user documentation and project generators (a project generator

is a template to create a project.). After installing the CD, documentation can be browsed by using the

"Manual Navigator" from the Start menu (Start > (All) Programs > Renesas > High-performance

Embedded Workshop > Manual Navigator).

All the sample code is contained within the project generator "YMCRPR8C25". By using the project

generators, the user can name the workspace and project and gives flexibility on where the files are

copied onto the PC.

Within HEW, start a new project workspace, and select YMCRPR8C25 for Project Type. See the Quick

Start Guide for detailed steps to creating a project with project generators.
