A Note on Using High-performance
Embedded Workshop
--With the Build Options for Custom Build Phases after the Version of a Toolchain Has Been Changed--


Please take note of the following problem in using High-performance Embedded Workshop:
  • With the build options for custom build phases after the version of a toolchain has been changed
High-performance Embedded Workshop is bundled with the compilers and other software products that it manages.

1. Product and Versions Concerned
   All the versions of High-performance Embedded Workshop up to V.4.04.01

2. Description
   If the version number of the toolchain used for the active workspace 
   is changed (NOTE 1), the settings of options in all the input files 
   that are displayed in the tree view of the build options dialog box for 
   custom build phases (NOTE 2) may be changed to the settings 
   made to Default Options that are also displayed in the above tree view.

   NOTES:
     1. To change the version number of a toolchain, make the change 
        when starting High-performance Embedded Workshop, or open the 
        Tools menu and select the Change Toolchain Version command.
        This command can be selected if a toolchain to which the toolchain 
        used to create the project is upgradable has already been 
        registered with High-performance Embedded Workshop.
     2. To open the build options dialog box for custom build phases,
        open the Build menu and click the name of the custom build phase.

3. Workaround
   If you have changed the version number of the toolchain that is used 
   for a workspace containing custom build phase where the necessary 
   build options are set to each input file, re-set the build options 
   for the custom build phase.

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