TM
Precaution

Please take note of the following problems in using integrated development environment TM for Mitsubishi microcomputers:
  • On reading projects created by TM V.2.00 or V.2.01 into TM V.3.00, V.3.01, or V.3.10
  • On scanning the dependencies of header files on the source file


  1. Problem on Reading Projects Created by TM V.2.00 or V.2.01 into TM V.3.00, V.3.01, or V.3.10
    1.1 Products Concerned
    TM V.3.00 -- V.3.10

    1.2 Description
    When projects created by TM V.2.00 or V.2.01 are read into any of the products concerned, errors arise at linking, which prevents builds from being executed properly.

    1.3 Conditions
    This problem occurs if the following two conditions are satisfied:
    (1) Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 is used as a host.
    (2) The build of a project created by TM V.2.00 or V.2.01 is made by any of the products concerned.

    1.4 Workaround
    Edit the project file (*.tmk) in the following steps:
    (1) Delete the line shown below from the project file (*.tmk) generated by any of the products concerned.
        ------------------------------------------------------------------
            Example in the Project_Name.tmk file:
                     :
             $(ODINCMD)\$(LNLIST): \    <-- This line serves as a guide
                     :
                 $(ECHO)\$(OUTDIR)\$(*F).r30 >> $(ODINCMD)\$(LNLIST) 
                                          <-- Delete the above line
        ------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    (2) Add the lines of the makefile (*.mak) generated by TM V.2.00 or V.2.01 at the place where a line was deleted from in step (1).
        ------------------------------------------------------------------
        Example in the Project_Name.mak file:
                :
        #*************  LINKLIST  ****************
        $(ODINCMD)\$(LNLIST): $(MKFILE)   <-- This line serves as a guide
                :
            $(ECHO) .\xxx.r30 >> $(ODINCMD)\$(LNLIST)  <-- Addition begins
                :
            $(ECHO) .\xxx.r30 >> $(ODINCMD)\$(LNLIST)  <-- Addition ends
    
                     As shown above, add a group of the lines represented in
                     "$(ECHO) .\xxx.r30 >> $(ODINCMD)\$(LNLIST)"
                      at the place where a line was deleted from in step (1)
                :
