Information about individual components
Below, information can be found about the different components in IAR Embedded Workbench. The information in the PDF files is, in the event of any differences, more accurate than the printed user guides and the online help files. Last minute updates to the user documentation can be found in the User documentation corrections section in each components release notes.
RTOS support
The C-SPY debugger supports RTOS-aware debugging, provided that a plugin is available for the RTOS of choice. RTOS-awareness means that execution can be controlled at the task/thread level and that internal structures like task lists and semaphore queues can be displayed. RTOS plugins are available for the most popular realtime operating systems. Some RTOS plugins are included in IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM, others can be requested from the RTOS vendor.
