Version 2.21

    • Support for position-independent code and ready-only data (ROPI)

      When using position-independent code and ROPI, the compiler in IAR Embedded Workbench for RH850 will generate code that uses PC-relative references for addressing code and read-only data.

      Updated device support

      The device support files have been updated to the most recent version from Renesas.

      Updated user documentation

      The C/C++ Development Guide, and IDE Project Management and Building Guide have been updated to reflect the product changes.

       Coding Standard. The SEI CERT C Coding Standard's goal is to provide rules for developing safe, reliable, and secure systems in the C programming language, with support for C11 constructs. C-STAT covers all rules in the different CERT C sections listed on the CERT C wiki as of January 2020, with the exception of the API, CON, POS, and WIN sections, which are not applicable to IAR Systems products, yielding a total of 90 covered rules.
    • Link analysis trace information
      The link analysis messages now display trace information when relevant. For checks looking for conflicting symbol names, all conflicting declarations are now listed in the trace information instead of each pair of conflicts being described in a separate message. This might lead to fewer reported messages for the same number of found issues.

    IAR Build Tools for Linux

    A new product, IAR Build Tools for Renesas RX is available. It contains the IAR C/C++ Compiler, IAR Assembler, Linker and library tools, C-STAT, IARBuild, and runtime libraries. Get product info

    Renesas Smart Configurator update

    The Renesas Smart Configurator (included) has been updated to V2.7.0.

User guides and documentation

Emulator and RTOS support

  • Emulator support

    • Renesas E1 emulator
    • Renesas E20 emulator
    • C-SPY Debugger simulator
    • C-SPY Debugger plugin SDK available for 3rd party debuggers

    RTOS support

    • RTOS-aware debugging with built-in plugins.
    • Micrium µC/OS-II
    • OSEK Run Time Interface (ORTI)
    • Segger embOS
    • Express Logic
    • FreeRTOS
    • CMX

    Each RTOS plugin installs a number of new windows in C-SPY, most importantly the task or thread list windows where task-specific breakpoints can be specified and task-specific steps executed. Different inspector windows display the contents of the internal data structures of the RTOS such as timers, queues, semaphores, resources and mailboxes.

Languages and standards

  • The IAR C/C++ compilers offer different dialects of the C and C++ programming languages, as well as different extensions specific for embedded programming (please note that not all language standards are supported for all target implementations). The compiler can be instructed to disable extensions for strict conformance to the standards. 

    A wide range of industry-standard debug and image formats compatible with most popular debuggers and emulators are supported. This includes ELF/DWARF where applicable.

    ISO/ANSI C/C++ Compliance

    The IAR C/C++ compilers adhere to a freestanding implementation of the following C programming language standards:

    • INCITS/ISO/IEC 9899:2018, known as C18 (Latest version only).
    • The compiler supports all C++17 features. The C++ library supports C++14 with no C++17 additions.  (Latest version only).
    • ISO/IEC 14882:2015, known as C++14
    • INCITS/ISO/IEC 9899:2012, known as C11
    • ANSI X3.159-1989, known as C89

    The ISO/ANSI C/C++ Compliance level varies between the different compilers. For complete information, please refer to the IAR C/C++ Compiler user documentation in your chosen product.

    IEEE 754 standard

    IAR Embedded Workbench supports the IEEE 754 standard for floating-point arithmetic.

    MISRA C

    MISRA C is a software development standard for the C programming language developed by MISRA, The Motor Industry Software Reliability Association. Its aims are to facilitate code safety, portability and reliability in the context of embedded systems, specifically those systems programmed in ISO C.

    The first edition of the MISRA C standard, "Guidelines for the use of the C language in vehicle based software", was produced in 1998. In 2004, a second edition was produced with many substantial changes to the guidelines, including a complete renumbering of the rules. Additionally MISRA C:2012 with extended support and MISRA C++:2008 for identifying unsafe code constructs in the C++ standard have also been added to the standards.

    IAR Embedded Workbench features an add-on product C-STAT so you can check compliance with rules as defined by MISRA C:2004, MISRA C++:2008 and MISRA C:2012.

    Test validation

    We use the following commercial test suites to test conformance of our tools to the standards:

    • Plum Hall Validation test suite for ISO/IEC C conformance
    • Perennial EC++ Validation Suite for C++ conformance
    • Dinkum C++ Proofer to test how our libraries conform to the C and C++ standard as well as test our STL implementation against the C++ standard.

    In addition to the commercial suites, we use several in-house test suites for testing new features, regression testing, corrected errors, etc.
