IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM version 7.70.1


IAR Systems, the world’s leading supplier of embedded development tools, is releasing a new version of its high-performance C/C++ compiler and debugger toolchain IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM. IAR Embedded Workbench with its optimizing C/C++ compiler is an integrated development environment for building and debugging ARM-based embedded applications. It provides extensive support for a wide range of ARM devices, hardware debug systems and RTOSs and generates very compact and efficient code. Ready-made device configuration files, flash loaders and over 2300 example projects are included.

IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM version 7.70:

- Support for the new I-jet Trace for ARM Cortex-A/R/M debug trace probe
I-jet Trace for ARM Cortex-A/R/M is a powerful probe providing extensive debugging and trace functionality for devices with the ARM CoreSight debug interface. It delivers large trace memory capacities and high-speed communication via USB 3.0 and trace clocks up to 350 MHz (double data rate). I-jet Trace supports ETM, PTM and SWO trace streams with up to 16 trace data lines for Cortex-A, Cortex-R, and Cortex-M devices using MIPI-20, MIPI-60, and Mictor-38 connectors.
- Initial support for the new ARMv8-M architecture
This release supports both the ARMv8-M Baseline and Mainline implementation. The ARMv8-M architecture is focused on bringing security to applications in the embedded and IoT market.
- CADI for ARM Fastmodels
The new CADI C-SPY debugger driver supports the ARM Fast Models hardware simulation technology.
- Support for new devices
New devices from AnalogDevices, Cypress, Epson, Microchip, Nuvoton, NXP, Renesas, STMicroelectronics, Texas Instruments and Toshiba are now supported.

Important information
Upgrade information
Before you install
To avoid any problems, do not install this release in a directory where you have previously installed any older version of IAR Embedded Workbench. It is recommended that you either uninstall an earlier product, or install this release in a separate directory. As before, however, it is possible to install different products, all using the same version of the main application, in the same root directory.

License renewal
The upgrade to this version might require a license renewal. This is performed by starting the IAR License Manager and selecting License>Check for License Renewal.
Note, if you have a network license, this must be performed on the license server.

Microsoft Windows
Windows Vista and newer operating systems have a security mechanism called UAC (User Access Control). Disabling UAC will automatically grant you permission when a task requires administrative rights but this is not recommended because it will reduce the security of the computer. It is not necessary to run the IAR Embedded Workbench IDE as an administrator. However, if you are not, modifications to the installed product tree in C:\Program Files\IAR Systems might not work as intended and could give unexpected results. One example is opening and building projects directly from the installed product tree. The build will succeed, but the resulting files (object, list, ...) will not appear where expected. Instead all output files will be redirected by the OS to C:\Users\\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\IAR Systems. To avoid this, the preferred way is to copy the examples to a location outside Program Files, either manually or automatically by opening them via the IAR Information Center.

Migration
The debugger flash loader mechanism was changed in version 5.40. If your project uses a default flash loader with no extra parameters, no migration work is needed.
If the debugger detects that your project uses a non-default flash loader or that it uses extra parameters, it will revert to the default flash loader for your device. In addition a .board file will be created in the project directory. If necessary the .board file can be edited and used by manually overriding the default flash loader with this project-specific .board file.

If you are migrating from version 4.x to this version, we recommend that you read the ARM IAR Embedded Workbench Migration Guide.

Object format
The compiler, assembler, linker and debugger object format is based on the ARM ABI ELF/DWARF standard version 2.08. For the standard definition, see the ARM Application Binary Interface.
