This is always nice, a ‘fat wallet’ that is! :slight_smile:

Your points are valid. Some real-time runs + things cannot be debugged
with an IDE + debugger. The ‘printf’ solution is useful in these cases.

With the IDE I can put some conditions, run in RT, and then see what is
the state of everything (memory blocks included) when the condition
comes up. In my case (I do not have your fancy tools!), it would be very
difficult to get this functionality other than through the IDE.

Any way, when you have some time, you may want to explore.

Are you working in the bay area now (San Jose, Oakland)?

Regards…

Miguel.

Hi John…

You will know this perhaps, but when you create a workspace with the
IDE, and you have your different projects and so on, you can still
‘make’ via command line! You could create your workspace, and make else
where with no IDE. We actually do this too (some people with whom I
work do not have the IDE).

You mentioned before that you have worked in the aerospace industry. I
wonder when and with which company (if you can tell)? I am curious
because I have met many people from the Apollo era (both from the
academic and from the trenches areas), and it is fascinating to talk to
them. (Pardon me if this does not apply to you of course).

Regards…

Miguel.

We have PE, but I tend to avoid the IDE. My home system
runs NC, and it’s convenient to be able to work on programs
on both.

PhAB, though, is very useful.

I actually do that. We had one person who liked the IDE, and I
have to maintain their code.

I’m not that old.

Don’t tell them I said that.
