Frequently Asked Questions

35)Special Function Registers (SFRs) – or the peripheral registers – are now displayed in VIEW->REGISTER; there is no longer an SFR Window.

36)The putchar()/getchar() breakpoints are set only if these functions are present (and the mechanism is enabled). Note that putchar()/getchar() could be indirectly referenced by a library function.

37)The Flash program/download progress bar does not update gradually. This behavior is to be expected. The progress bar updates whenever a “chunk” of memory is written to Flash. The development tools attempt to minimize the number of program chunks in order to maximize programming efficiency. Consequently, it’s possible for, say, a 60K byte program to be reduced to a single chunk, and the progress bar will not be updated until the entire write operation is complete.
