Configuration of these elements is done graphically, with code wizards to speed the creation of new threads and interrupt handlers. VDK has been available for multiple releases of VisualDSP++ and is now a key compo- nent of products shipping from a number of high-volume vendors.

As embedded applications become increasingly part of the connected world, the ability to rapidly add reliable USB connectivity to an applica- tion can often make or break a development schedule. For SHARC processors, USB 2.0 device connectivity is provided via an EZ-Extender® daughter board for the EZ-KIT Lite®/EZ-Board™. (See “SHARC USB EZ-Extender” on page 2-47.) USB data is sent using the SHARC external port. Bulk and asynchronous transfer modes are supported out of the box, with USB-IF logo-certified embedded and host applications provided with full source code.

VisualDSP++ uses incremental builds, multiple build configurations (“Debug” and “Release,” for example), a syntax-coloring editor, and many other code editing features. Makefiles can be imported and exported freely.

Debug and Tune Your Application With Ease

The ability to develop a high performance application is often gated by the visibility into your running system that your debugger provides. Visu- alDSP++ excels in this regard, with best-in-class debugging and inspection support. Robust fundamental C language source debugging (source-level stepping and breakpoints, stack unwinds, local variable and C expression support, memory and register windows) serves as a foundation upon which multiple innovative and unique tools rest.

VisualDSP++ supports a variety of debugging targets. Most common is a JTAG connection to an EZ-KIT Lite/EZ-Board or to a custom target board by means of Analog Devices emulator products. However, there will be occasions where closer inspection in a simulated environment may be
