Software Installation & Overview 3
To develop and debug programs for the RabbitCore RCM2200 (and for all
other Z-World and Rabbit Semiconductor hardware), you must install and
use Dynamic C. This chapter takes you through the installation of Dynamic
C, and then provides a tour of its major features with respect to the Rabbit-
Core RCM2200 module.
3.1 An Overview of Dynamic C
Dynamic C integrates the following development
functions into one program:
• Editing
• Compiling
• Linking
• Loading
• In-Circuit Debugging
In fact, compiling, linking and loading are one func-
tion. Dynamic C does not use an In-Circuit Emula-
tor; programs being developed are downloaded to
and executed from the “target” system via an
enhanced serial-port connection. Program develop-
ment and debugging take place seamlessly across
this connection, greatly speeding system develop-
ment.
Other features of Dynamic C include:
• Dynamic C has an easy-to-use built-in text
editor. Programs can be executed and
debugged interactively at the source-code or
machine-code level. Pull-down menus and
keyboard shortcuts for most commands make
Dynamic C easy to use.
• Dynamic C also supports assembly language
programming. It is not necessary to leave C or
the development system to write assembly
language code. C and assembly language may
be mixed together.
• Debugging under Dynamic C includes the
ability to use
