Known limitations & bugs

1. Build system

• Workspace paths with space characters are not supported

2. Target management

• Windows 64 bits USB support for Open AT 3G/CDMA devices: Due to some unstability in the integrated native library managing serial ports handling, Developer Studio should crash when reset occurs on these devices.
• Linux USB support for Open AT devices: After a device reset with USB connection, sometimes the connection is broken since the USB port identifier has changed. It's necessary to close the port, refresh the port list and reopen the port again to resume the connection with the device.

3. Run & Debug

• Two breakpoints limitation: When using embedded GDB on Open AT, the 2 active breakpoints limitation can cause unexpected behavior when 2 breakpoints are active and the step into, step over and step return actions are used in the debugger. It is recommended to disable breakpoints (or to let only one active breakpoint) to get a reliable behavior when using step by step debugging.

• Remove useless Release configuration for application projects in RTE mode
• Default configurations at project creation time are new Target ARM ELF GCC and RTE MinGW

3. Target management

• DUMP frames sent by the Firmware were not correctly decoded

4. Run & Debug

• Launch configurations (Run/Debug) can be simply created by using the Run/Debug toolbar button
• Automatic switch to Target Management perspective when running a project in RTE

Release 1.0.1

1. Install

• Desktop/Start menu shortcuts added by the Developer Studio light installer
• Windows Vista support issues

2. Build system / Open AT Projects management

• No need anymore to take care about the libraries order on the ARM ELF GCC linker command line
• Some plug-ins samples (e.g. from C-GPS plug-in) dependencies to other plug-ins not correctly managed
• It was not possible to change the current OS version in a library project
• Bad symbol name generation for C-GPS plug-in (makes the build fail with ARM compilers)
• Incremental build was not working (relink of the application was performed on each build request)
• Added by default the -fno-profile option on ARM ELF GCC compiler command line
• IDE V1 project import was not working when source paths out of the project directory were referenced
• IDE V1 library project import was not working
• IDE V1 project import did not import symbols declared with the -flag option
• Several issues fixed concerning IDE V1 projects import depending on library projects

3. Target management

• Target Management Toolbar icons strange behaviour when an automatic build is triggered
• Empty trace levels configuration box after an undetected target reset
• Traces containing a %u format character not correctly displayed
• COM port identifier not correctly configured if greater than 9
• Target management doesn't go anymore to "connected" state if the COM settings are incorrect
• New toolbar button in the trace view usable to force the target back to Debug after an undetected reset
