is declared outside the function or which an interrupt service routine uses or which is a

global variable but passed by reference and not passed by value as an argument in to the

function.

1. Project Creation / Compilation / Downloading STEPS:

Double click on the icon Triton available on your Desktop.

Select the workspace by creating a folder or also can select the default

Workspace.

Create C or C++ project by clicking Project New C Project /C++Project.

Enter a name for the project. In the Project name field, type the name ofproject.

Do not use spaces

or special characters in the project name (for example, "ABC").

Select appropriate Target i.e ARM.

Select appropriate Variant LPC2138 /LPC2148 /LPC2129 from list as required for

building project.

Select appropriate Operating System, here we would select none as the operating

system.

Select Port from list as per your target board i.e COM1.

Select Baud Rate from dropdown list i.e 38400.

And let the rest of the options be default, and then click Next.

Select the type of project that you want to build. By default Project Type is

Executable (Gnu).

Debug - Project can be debugged on target board using Serial, Odyssey JTAG

and Ethernet

Release - Project is run on Target board without debugging.

Click Finish when you are done.

You should now see the new project (ABC) in the C/C++ Projects view.

In Triton IDE new project created will have template files. for eg – ABC_main.c

and ABC_start.s





___________________________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________


Page No. 23

Properties file is also created which shows properties of project.

Enter the code in the ABC_main .c file. You can double click the ABC_main.c

tab in the Editor view to expand the view.

You will notice an asterisk in front of the file name on the tab in the Editor

view.The asterisk indicates that the file has changed but has not been saved.

Now save the ABC_main .c file by clicking File Save.

In Triton IDE you can build project in two modes :--

1. Debug mode - Builds project with debugging

2. Release mode - Builds project without debugging

To build project in release mode:

Select release mode by right clicking on project and click Active Build

Configuration Release.

Right click on the project folder, and select the option BUILD.

Navigate to the C/C++ Projects view and expand the Release folder created

when you build project in Release mode.

Here, ABC.hex file is created which is to be downloaded on target board and

executed.

Connect the Hardware Board with the serial connector and power supply

provided.

Switch on the Hardware Board, and put the switch in ISP Mode for the program to

be downloaded.

Right click on the ABC.hex file and download the executable code on to

theBoard.

Once, the program is downloaded, shift the mode from ISP to RUN and reset the

Board to verify the output.
