Choices of C Compilers for ST7F part?
2006-02-06 08:18 AM
I am looking at the alternatives for ST7F tools for C compiler and debug. I have a package from Cosmic. Are the any other choices? I see Metrowerks listed in web pages at Softecmicro. But I can't find much more info than this.
Are these the only two choices? - thanks, Mike2006-02-06 09:09 PM
Hi Mike,
I've never heard of any other C-Compiler for ST7 than Cosmic and Metrowerks. I use the Metrowerks and the STVD7 (visual develop) from STMicro and I am comfortable with both of them. You can download the STVD7 from thehttp://mcu.st.com/mcu/modules.php?name=mcu&file=familiesdocs&FAM=15
and use it for free. It is a quite practical tool. You may use the STVD7 with the Cosmic as well. Regards WoRo2006-02-06 11:32 PM
I will strongly recommend to use Cosmic in combination with STVD7 toolchain.

Hi Mike,
I have developed an IP stack on ST7F321 with C-Cosmic and several routine in asm with an EMU3. This emulator is very good to develop and debug complex application. I have had lot of problems with cosmic C to integrate C and ASM, especialy for routine parameter and variable declaration. Regards Sly2006-02-08 06:39 PM
Hi.
I use Cosmic since 1 year and I am satisfied. I did not have any big problems due to compiler.2006-02-08 09:59 PM

Hi Setler,
I've never had any problems with Cosmic using the STVD7 - but I don't have any after I've changed to the Metrowerks C-compiler. So why do you ''strongly recommend'' to use the Cosmic compiler??? Regards WoRo2006-02-09 07:29 AM
Hi new here, i would rather prefer STVD7

I vote at all !! I use Cosmic ''C'' compiler from about 4 years without any problem... You can believe to me ! So You can just investigate if You are using it correctly. The Cosmic support service is very efficient to help You about any problem You have. Sixtus
