A Note on Relocatable Assembler
M3T-SRA74

Please take note of the following problem in using relocatable assembler M3T-SRA74 for the 740 family MCUs.
  • On setting of environment variable INC


  1. Versions Concerned
    M3T-SRA74 V.4.00 Release 1 and later (for Windows)

  2. Description
    At installation of the product, correct environment variable INC cannot be set, and INC74 is set instead. As a result, if include files are saved in the directory specified by INC74, M3T-SRA74 cannot find these files.
    Correct setting: INC=C:\MTOOL\INC74
    Incorrect setting: INC74=C:\MTOOL\INC74

  3. Workaround
    This problem will be circumvented in either of the following ways:
    (1) Change an environment variable's name INC74 to INC after installation of M3T-SRA74; then restart it. The variable INC74 is found in the settings of environment variables for M3T-SRA74 in the Autoexec.bat file.
    [Example]
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
        Autoexec.bat File:
            
       REM ***** Environment variables for SRA74 *****
       SET BIN74=C:\MTOOL\BIN
       SET LIB74=C:\MTOOL\LIB74
       SET INC74=C:\MTOOL\INC74    <-- Change to SET INC=C:\MTOOL\INC74
       SET TMP=C:\MTOOL\TMP
       SET PATH=%BIN74%;%PATH%
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    (2) Use the absolute pathname to describe each include file in assembler directive .include.

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