installation instructions

to install the patch carry out the following steps:

1. ensure that you are currently using rvct 4.1. to do this, type:

   armcc --vsn

   and ensure that this returns rvct 4.1 build 462 or later.

   
   

2. extract all the files from the zip file into a temporary directory.

3. copy the include directory from the temporary directory to replace your existing include directory. the existing directory can be located by the armcc41inc environment variable, e.g:

   c:\> set armcc41inc
   armcc41inc=c:\program files\arm\rvct\data\4.1\462\include\windows\

4. copy the lib directory from the temporary directory to replace your existing lib directory. the existing directory can be located by the armcc41lib environment variable, e.g.:

   c:\> set armcc41lib
   armcc41lib=c:\program files\arm\rvct\data\4.1\462\lib\

5. copy the win_32-pentium directory from the temporary directory to replace your existing win_32-pentiumdirectory. the existing directory can be located by the armcc41bin environment variable, e.g.:

   c:\> set armcc41bin
   armcc41bin=c:\program files\arm\rvct\programs\4.1\462\win_32-pentium\

6. the updated tools should now have been installed. to confirm this, open a dos command prompt window and enter:

   armcc --vsn
   armlink --vsn
   armasm --vsn
   fromelf --vsn
   armar --vsn

   the version returned should be rvct 4.1 build 631.

64-bit linker

rvds 4.1 service pack 1, and this patch, include a 64-bit version of armlink.exe. if you have installed rvds 4.1 sevice pack 1 or later, there will also be a directory for 64-bit executables. for example:

c:\program files\arm\rvct\programs\4.1\462\win-x86_64

these can be updated by copying the contents of the win-x86_64 directory from the temporary directory to this location. if have not installed rvds service pack 1 or later this directory will not be present, but can be created if you wish to use the 64-bit version of the linker.

the win-x86_64 directory also contains copies of armcc.exe, armasm.exe, fromelf.exe and armar.exe. however, these are 32-bit executables, and are provided because some functionality requires all the executables to be in the same directory.

note: by default, your system will be configured to use the 32-bit version of the linker. if you wish to use the 64-version, you must change the armccbin environment variable to point to the win-x86_64 directory, and modify the path to include this directory instead of, or before, the win_32-pentium directory.
