Drew, I think the people at Metrowerks are working hard on solving this
problem, and perhaps are too busy to answer you right away, so I'll fill you in on what's happening. Metrowerks sent me a bug fix for the 5.0.3 compiler, (which is now called version 5.0.4), and it worked OK, fixed the problem I was having. Later, they also sent me the compiled MSL libraries, as they thought mine were corrupted in some way. (We started out using CodeWarrior version 3.5, and have only upgraded, never done a complete removal and re-installation.) When I deleted my existing libraries, and installed the new ones I was sent, the P and X memory sizes increased significantly, to the point where they no longer fit into the '807 chip. I have sent them test cases, for both the 5.0.2 and 5.0.4 tools and libraries, and they are now working on a fix for this problem. So, to cut to the chase, you are correct in holding off on upgrading CodeWarrior for now. I expect that Metrowerks will have a fix fairly soon. I will post a message to this discussion group when I am satisfied that this problem has truly been fixed.

Let the end user decide if this is needed. We have not installed 5.03 because of the issues that are being raised and if problems are being fixed, why isn't the whole user community be advised of the fixes?

The new cc_m56800.dll that you sent me has indeed fixed the other problem we were having. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to you, and everyone else at Metrowerks who was involved in fixing this problem. Your very fast response and bug fix has greatly helped us in our efforts to meet several critical deadlines, and has also greatly pleased senior management here. We are also looking forward to being a Beta Test Site for the next major release of CodeWarrior for Motorola DSP56800, and working together with you on future improvements and bug fixes. Please pass on my sincere thanks to all of your team who were involved in this effort. Thank you.

Since I believe this issue to be specific to your setup, I am not going to post the solution on the newsgroup. However, I want everyone to know that there are no issues with the R5.0.3 MSL libraries.

I realize that these warnings are unlikely to cause us problems, but I just find it extremely annoying to get any warnings at all when I compile our projects. > > Thanks, everyone, in advance for your help. > > Regards, > > Art Johnson > Senior Systems Analyst > PMC Prime Mover Controls Inc. > 3600 Gilmore Way > Burnaby, B.C., Canada > V5G 4R8 > Phone: 604 433-4644 > FAX: 604 433-5570 > Email: art@p... > http://www.pmc-controls.com _____________________________________ Note: If you do a simple "reply" with your email client, only the author of this message will receive your answer.
