TASKING TriCore Inspector

The TASKING TriCore Inspector is a product which allows you to ascertain whether compilation of your code is affected by known issues in various components of the TASKING VX-toolset for TriCore as presented on the TASKING Issue Portal. Essentially, the Inspector is a copy of an existing TriCore toolset that does not produce any executable code. It produces diagnostic messages instead.

1. Go to the PRODDIR (product directory where TriCore binaries are installed) of the Tasking TriCore tools, for example:
   

   C:\Program Files (x86)\TASKING\TriCore v6.2r2\ctc\bin

2. Rename the following existing files as follows:
   

   cctc.exe  to  cctc_orig.exe
   ctc.exe   to  ctc_orig.exe
   astc.exe  to  astc_orig.exe
   cptc.exe  to  cptc_orig.exe
   ltc.exe   to  ltc_orig.exe
   

3. Go to the PRODDIR (product directory where the Inspector binaries are installed) of the TASKING Inspector, for example:
   

   C:\Program Files (x86)\TASKING\TriCore_v6.2r2_Inspector v1.0r1\ctc\bin

4. Copy the following files:
   

   insp_cctc.exe
   insp_ctc.exe
   insp_astc.exe
   insp_cptc.exe
   insp_ltc.exe
   

   and paste them to the  PRODDIR of the Tasking TriCore tools

5. ​Download the batch file select into the PRODDIR of the Tasking TriCore tools and add the .bat file extension: select.bat. If necessary modify the path entries used in the batch file to match your installation folders, if you did not use the default folders.

6. Open a Command Prompt with administrator rights:
   Windows Start -> type cmd -> right click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator
    
   Change to the PRODDIR of the Tasking TriCore tools by running this command: 
   cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\TASKING\TriCore v6.2r2\ctc\bin"

7. Now run the batch file:
   

   select insp2ctc (will activate the TriCore executables)
   select ctc2insp (will activate the Inspector executables)

8. Launch the Eclipse IDE for Tasking TriCore tools and rebuild your application. When using the Inspector executables, the diagnostic messages do show up in the Console view.
