Introduction

Starting with CrossWorks for ARM 1.6, only a small set of generic target support packages are shipped in the basic CrossWorks installation. To develop for a specific CPU or board it is necessary to download and install a CPU and/or board support package for the device you are targetting.

The following pages list and allow you to download the CPU and board support packages currently available for CrossWorks for ARM.

Installing Support Packages

Before you can install any support packages you must have installed CrossWorks for ARM 1.6 or later.

To install a support package:

  • Download the support packages you require from this web site.
  • In CrossStudio select Tools > Install Package and then select package you wish to install using the file browser

Using The Support Packages

Once you have installed the support package you should be able to create new projects for the target using File > New > New Project.

You can view the support packages you have installed by selecting Tools > View Packages. Clicking on the support package links from this page will take you to the support package content page which contains useful links to the package contents such as documentation, example projects and system files.
