Precautions

Please take note of the following problem in using simulator debuggers PD32RSIM, PD308SIM, PD30SIM, PD79SIM, and PD77SIM and emulator debuggers PD32000, PD308, PD30, PD79, and PD77:


  1. Versions Concerned
    1.1 Simulator Debugger
    For M32R family MCUs:PD32RSIM V.1.00 Release 1
    For M16C/80 series MCUs:PD308SIM V.1.00 Release 1 -- V.2.00 Release 1
    For M16C/60, 20 series MCUs:PD30SIM V.2.00 Release 1 -- V.4.00 Release 1

    1.2 Emulator Debuggers
    For M32R family MCUs:PD32000 V.1.00 Release 1 -- V.1.10 Release 1
    For M16C/80 series MCUs:PD308 V.1.00 Release 1 -- V.1.10 Release 2

    For 7700xx series MCUs:PD77 V.1.00 Release 1 -- V.2.10 Release 1

  2. Problem
    During display of the Source dialog box in the Program or Source window (opened by using View -> Source button or menu), Windows' error message appears, forcing termination of the program.

    2.1 Conditions
    Debugging such a large-sized program that the number of its object modules is greater than 512 causes this problem to occur if the line count of the list box at the left end of the dialog box exceeds 1024.
    * The list box provides the following items of information:
    (1) The names of the object modules that can be debugged at the source level
    Involved is every object module in which an option to display debug information is selected at compilation or assembling, as well as every module linked from the library.
    (2) The names of the source files constituting every object module in(1)


  3. Workaround
    In order to reduce the number of the names of object modules and source files in debug information, compile or assemble the object modules that have already been debugged without using any option to display debug information.

  4. Schedule of Fixing Problem
    As for PD32000, PD32RSIM, PD308SIM, PD30SIM, PD79SIM, and PD77SIM, we plan to fix this problem in our next release.

    For PD308, PD30, PD79, and PD77, please use the following versions or later ones since they have already been fixed:
    • PD308 V.2.00 Release 1
    • PD30 V.5.00 Release 1
