RELEASE NOTES for iMaker 2.1.1 (30.07.2008)
Product Description:
The iMaker extension for Carbide.c++
is a tool for building ROM images. Its core functionality is implemented in
a command line executable called imaker.cmd. The iMaker offers a
Carbide.c++ integration that provides a graphical user interface for the imaker.cmd command line tool. The iMaker enables you to set and modify
the build parameters that are used by iMaker.
Image building process is started
by launching iMaker dialog by choosing the Open iMaker Dialog... menu
item from iMaker pulldown menu (hammer with 'i') on the Carbide.c++ toolbar.
The ROM
image is built using the preferences configured in this dialog. Although not necessary, these preferences
can be saved for future use for image building if needed.
Once preferences are configured, an image can be built by clicking the Run button in the dialog. All saved preferences in the preferences directory
configured via Window > Preferences... > iMaker are visible on the left side panel of the dialog.
Any of these preferences can be used for image creation.
