On incorrect registration of character strings in Microsoft(R)
Visual SourceSafe (VSS)
When VSS is selected as the version-administrating tool, uppercase
letters that are contained in the project names and the file names
of the projects entered at logging into VSS* are registered as
lowercases on VSS.
| * |
The window for logging into VSS is opened as follows:
Open the Tools menu and select the Version Control -> Select
command.
The Select Version Control System dialog box appears. In this

On incorrectly displaying function pointers on a C++ Classes
category tree
When you click the Navigation tab in the Workspace window and
then expand the C++ Classes category tree* in the window in
order to display function pointers defined in a source file,
incorrect results may be obtained. For example, source code "long (*proc)();" is displayed on a
C++ Classes category tree not as a function name but as only
"()" or "(*proc)()."
| * |
This category tree can be displayed as follows:
| (1) |
Click the Navigation tab in the Workspace window; then right-
click an unoccupied area of the window. A pop-up menu
appears. |

then expand the C++ Classes category tree* in the window in
order to display variables of type structure array defined in
a source file, codes other than the variables may be displayed
in addition.
When the source code shown in Example below is displayed on a C++
Classes category tee, for example, '[', ']', and '3' are displayed
in addition to the variable of type structure array "rate."
Example:
---------------------------------------------------------------
struct name {
char str;
} rate[3];
--------------------------------------------------------------- |
| (6) |
On label names remaining undeleted in the Disassembly window
When the combination with the debugging platform is disabled
and then enabled, the label names that would be deleted remain
displayed in the Disassembly window. |

On the yellow right arrow that points to the indication of the
program counter (PC) remaining undeleted in the Editor window
Even if downloaded modules are unloaded, the yellow right arrow
that points to the indication of PC will not be deleted.
Or, if the combination with the debugging platform is disabled
and then enabled, the yellow right arrow that points to the
indication of PC will not disappear.

- How to Update Your Product
Free-of-charge online revision is available. To update yours
download the update program from
HERE ; then execute it.
- Notices
| (1) |
If you have not already installed the High-performance Embedded
Workshop V.2.2 or later, you cannot update your High-performance
Embedded Workshop to V.4.00.02. |
| (2) |
No components except the High-performance Embedded Workshop
(for example, C compilers, emulators, etc.) are affected by this
update. |
| (3) |
In order to update the High-performance Embedded Workshop bundled
with the C/C++ compiler package for the SuperH RISC engine family,
the compiler package must be updated to V.7.1.03 or V.7.1.04 in
advance; then update the High-performance Embedded Workshop to
V.4.00.02.
So, the C/C++ compiler package for the H8, H8S, and H8SX families
must be updated to V.5.0.05 or V.5.0.06 before updating the
High-performance Embedded Workshop. |
