The CS+ (formerly CubeSuite+) integrated development environment provides simplicity, security, and ease of use in developing software through iterative cycles of editing, building, and debugging. You can use the basic software tools for developing software for Renesas MCUs immediately after the initial installation. CS+ is also compatible with Renesas hardware tools including the E2 and E1 on-chip debugging emulators (sold separately), which facilitates advanced debugging. Abundant extensions and functions for user support ensure a dependable environment for all users.
Compiler packages for the target products include CS+. Combining a compatible emulator product with either edition of CS+ (commercial or evaluation) makes all types of debugging functions available.
Important: CS+ is not generally promoted to U.S. and European customers.
Topics
New release: CS+ V8.04.00
We have improved the usability of the built-in editor (for use with the RH850, RX, and RL78 families). The editor now enables jumping to the definitions of variables as well as those of functions in source code.
