A Note on Using the Evaluation Versions
of Two C/C++ Compiler Packages

Please take note of the problem described below in using the evaluation versions of two C/C++ compiler packages.

  1. Products Concerned
    The following two C/C++ compiler packages are concerned which became downloadable from our homepage on this March 23:
    (1) Evaluation C/C++ compiler package V.9.00 Release 02
       for the SuperH RISC engine family
    (2) Evaluation C/C++ compiler package V.6.01 Release 00
       for the H8SX, H8S, and H8 families


  2. Restrictions Placed on the Evaluation Compiler Packages
    The following restrictions are placed on both of the evaluation compiler packages:
    (1) The built-in evaluation period lasts for 60 days from your first use of each compiler. For this period, you are able to use the evaluation version in the same manner as its commercial one.
    (2) After 60 days, a limitation of link size is imposed as follows:
    - 256KB maximum on the compiler for the SuperH RISC engine family
    - 64KB maximum on the compiler for the H8SX, H8S, and H8 families


  3. Problem
    If you install the compiler package you want to use by selecting Other region (Japan, Asia etc.) in the Region Selection dialog box that opens at installation, link errors arise after 60 days from your first use of the compiler, which prevent you from creating objects.
    The error message that appears is as follows:
    "L3440 (F) Software license not available"

  4. Solution
    Go through the following steps:
    (1) Download the problem-fixed version of the evaluation compiler you are using from Software Download Site.
    (2) Remove the previous version from your PC using the Add or Remove Programs icon in Control Panel of Windows and install the evaluation version that you have downloaded.


  5. Notice of Built-in Evaluation Period
    Even if you install the problem-fixed version after removing the previous one, the built-in evaluation period of days is counted from your first use of the previous version.
