IAR Embedded Workbench for Eclipse (EWRL78 version 2.21)

Known issues

(ECL-3351)
The project importer dialog might in some cases lose focus behind other dialogs (ECL-3249, updated 2023-01-19)
Running a C-STAT analysis on a project where header files which are not part of the project itself will produce "Missing Resources" errors when the analysis is performed the first time. (ECL-3119)
Installing the IAR plugins in Eclipse 2020-06 requires the user to run Java 11 or untick the "Verify provisioning operation is compatible with currently running JRE" option in Windows>Preferences>Install\Update or the installation will fail. See https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/NewIn911 for further details. (ECL-2991, updated 2020-07-20)
Using the "@" placement operator in a function declaration will result in a syntax error being reported by the CDT indexer. The workaround is to use a #pragma location instead. (ECL-1801, updated 2016-10-19)
In projects which use many/long include paths, the compiler command line might exceed system limits, which in turn might cause the Eclipse CDT Internal Builder to truncate it. A workaround is to build the project using make, via Project > Properties > C/C++ Build > Tool Chain Editor > Current builder, by setting it to Gnu Make Builder. For further information about Eclipse CDT and command line length, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=72965 . (ECL-1794, updated 2014-07-17)
The Debugger settings tabs do not support Eclipse build variables syntax (e.g. ${ProjName}). However, EW variables are supported ( $TOOLKIT_DIR$ , etc). (ECL-1650, updated 2019-11-11)
When cleaning a project, Eclipse might display a warning about the "rm" command not being found. The project will be anyway cleaned using the Java runtime library. See Eclipse issues https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=242649 , https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=218870. (ECL-1013, updated 2016-11-09)

Resolved issues

Fixed an issue which prevented the project importer to run in recent versions of Eclipse (2023-09 onwards) (ECL-3295, updated 2023-11-15)
The IAR plugins are now compatible with Eclipse 2023-09 and CDT 11 (ECL-3284, updated 2023-09-22)
All plugins are now signed (ECL-3256, updated 2023-03-24)
The plugins are now compatible with Java 19. This fixes an issue where the project importer would not be enabled. (ECL-3255, updated 2023-02-08)
Fixed an issue where the Disable Hardware Mul/Div option could have inconsistent values between build configurations. (ECL-3178, updated 2021-10-28)
Download project, Download file and Erase flash for a single project now works. (ECL-3113, updated 2021-09-30)
The toolchain no longer fails to automatically add the library replacement source file for hardware multiplier for projects created using CDT's "Empty" project template. (ECL-3151, updated 2021-06-15)
The Gnu Make Builder will now use a relative path to the linker command file (.xcl). (ECL-3047, updated 2021-03-15)
The dependencies on Eclipse EMF have been reduced to the ecore and databinding features. (ECL-3019, updated 2020-11-09)
Fixed an issue where the Gnu Make Builder would not be correctly detected if a project was originally created with a different toolchain than IAR, resulting in build errors. (ECL-3002, updated 2020-11-05)
Fixed an issue where the Defined Symbols compiler option did not affect the compiler command line. (ECL-3000, updated 2020-08-27)
Fixed an issue which prevented C-STAT to work with toolchain plugins that use the WTDX runtime library (ECL-2979, updated 2020-05-19)
Improved compatibility with MSYS64 make when building using makefiles on Windows. The following Java system properties can be set to enforce Windows cmd or Bash syntax when generating linker makefile scripts for ilink: com.iar.ilink.make.useBash or com.iar.ilink.make.useCmd (ECL-2750, updated 2020-03-24)
Fixed an issue where attempting to read the compiler and/or C-STAT version information would cause an UnsatisfiedLinkError if Java 9 or later was used. (ECL-2931, updated 2019-10-22)
