A Note on Using
the High-performance Embedded Workshop (IDE)
--On Executing Commands
in the Command Line Window--


Please take note of the following problem in using the High-performance Embedded Workshop:
  • On executing commands in the Command Line window


  1. Versions Concerned
    The High-performance Embedded Workshop V.4.01.00 and V.4.01.01

    The High-performance Embedded Workshop is bundled with the software products such as compilers that it manages.
    To check for the version number of your High-performance Embedded Workshop, open the Help menu and select the About High-performance Embedded Workshop command.


  2. Description
    Five types of command may not be executed in the Command Line window of the High-performance Embedded Workshop with an error message accompanied.


  3. Condition
    This problem occurs if any one of the following commands is executed in the Command Line window under the condition that a filename containing a slash (/) as its path-delimiting character is used in the parameter to the above command:
    file_save, file_verify, symbol_load, symbol_save, and 
    tool_information
    Examples:
    When commands are typed in the Command Line window as shown below and then executed, an error message will be delivered in each case.
    (1)   file_save
    Command input: file_save s-record c:/aaa.mot 0 10
    Error message: File save error
    (2)   file_verify
    Command input: file_verify s-record c:/aaa.mot 0
    Error message: File verify error
    (3)   symbol_load
    Command input: symbol_load c:/aaa.sym
    Error message: File load error
    (4)   symbol_save
    Command input: symbol_save c:/aaa.sym
    Error message: File save error
    (5)   tool_information
    Command input: tool_information c:/aaa.htm
    Error message: Error. Could not create file


  4. Workarounds
    If an error message is delivered, replace the path-delimiting character "/" with "\\" or "\" according to the results of executing the tcl command in the Command Line window.
    (1)   Result "TCL Enabled" obtained
    Replace "/" with "\\"; not with "\".
    (2)   Result "TCL Disabled" obtained
    Replace "/" with "\"; not with "\\".


  5. Schedule of Fixing the Problem
    We plan to fix this problem in the next release of the product.
