Realview C / C++

Does someone know what advantage the C++ option brings to Realview. I see in the help it mentions the Rogue Wave C++ library.

I notice that there are a number of LIB folders. ie. ARM\LIB which contains CAL.lib and CALFP.lib, is this the library used by the legacy CARM compiler?

Then I see ARM\LIB\RV30\ARMLIB is this the library used by Realview compiler? Then I see ...RV30\CPPLIB which sounds like a C++ lib?

I am just curious as to what is available as the help section doesn't seem to spell it out, if the C++ library is there can I use it, if so how?

  • I believe the floating point math is supported with more bits of resolution for floats & doubles in the RealView tools than it was for prior CARM tools. That's why I made the (virtually painless) switch to RealView. The way things work in the IDE are not quite exactly the same as they did in CARM (such as not getting ROM/RAM usage statistics in the output window after a build), but it seems close enough to me to not be a problem.
