C/C++ Compiler and CrossView Pro debugger for the Philips XA
Highly optimized XA C compiler package producing the most efficient code
- Supports the Philips XA in its most powerful mode: Native mode operation
- The XA Compiler is a complete new design. Not an upgraded 8051 compiler (like most other XA compilers on the market)!
- ANSI-C & C-51 source compatible
- Supports six different memory models! Tiny, Small, Medium, Compact, Large and Huge.
- ISO C++/EC++ compiler available
- In-line assembly and in-line expansion of user and predefined functions for efficiency; Many intrinsic functions to optimize code
- Application mode selection: Support for optimal CPU mode (User mode, System mode) code generation and control
- Complete ANSI C libraries in source, and XA tuned runtime support libraries
Embedded Development Environment lets users access all tools through a common Windows interface and supports graphical configuration of CPU and memory areas (linker/locator)
Powerful macro assembler and linker/locator generates ROMable, relocatable and reentrant code for optimum flexibility
Software floating point libraries for single and double precision operation
8051 Assembly to XA code translator built in
Recommended by Philips Semiconductors and used by their FAEs
Output formats: IEEE-695, Intel HEX, S-Records

Two XA debugger execution environments available:
- High speed simulator debugger
- Retargetable ROM monitor debugger interfaces directly to Evaluation Boards or target applications. ROM monitor program is royalty free and delivered in source
View your source in C/C++, assembly, or mixed mode, where you have your high level language code intermixed with the corresponding assembly code
Unlimited amount of code and data breakpoints supported
Code/data coverage and profiling (performance analysis) in simulator
Programmable data analysis enables quick detection of errors in your data output
C and assembly level trace and stack tracing
Bubble-Spy™ technology for easy and quick inspection of variable contents
File System Simulation in debugger allows ANSI C calls to interact with the host computer I/O services
Slick and modern user-interface, tailorable to your own preferences
