|
|---|
This is to announce that C compiler NC79WA (with an assembler and integrated development environment) for the 7900 series MCUs has been upgraded from its V.4.00 Release 1 to V.4.10 Release 1.
- Descriptions of Upgrade
- 1.1 New Features
| (1) | Incrementing and decrementing pointer variables of type far and assigning constants to successive areas further optimized |
| (2) | Function-extending #pragma directive TBLJMPOFF introduced (this function warns that the table jump code created using the -fswitch_table[-fST] option spreads across the bank boundary) |
| (3) | Capable of assigning pointer variables using the DPnDATA declaration utility with no option selected |
- 1.2 Problems Fixed
| (1) | Assigning the address of a function to a variable of type pointer to another function results in a System Error being generated if the types of both functions are different from each other.

| (2) | The total size of ROM displayed on-screen at completion of linking may differ from the one outputted to the MAP file.
