CHAPTER 1 BASIC FUNCTIONS
1.10 Storing External Tools
This section describes the function to set an external tool to SOFTUNE Workbench.
■
External Tools
A non-standard tool not attached to SOFTUNE Workbench can be used by setting it as an external tool and
by calling it from SOFTUNE Workbench. Use this function to coordinate with a source file version control
tool.
If a tool set as an external tool is designed to output the execution result to the standard output and the
standard error output through the console application, the result can be specified to output the SOFTUNE
Workbench Output window. In addition, the allow description of additional parameters each time the tool is
activated.
To set an external tool, use the [Setup] - [Setting Tool] menu.
To select the title of a set tool, use the [Setup] - [Activating Tool] menu.
■
Setting Options
When activating an external tool from SOFTUNE Workbench, options must be added immediately after the
external tool name. Specify the file names, and unique options, etc.
SOFTUNE Workbench has a set of special parameters for specifying any file name and unique tool options.
If any characters string described other than these parameters, such characters string are passed as is to the
external tool.
For details about the parameters, see Section "1.11 Macro Descriptions Usable in Manager".
Note:
When checking [Use the Output window], note the following:
• Once a tool is activated, neither other tools nor the compiler/assembler can be activated until the
tool is terminated.
• The Output window must not be used with a tool using a wait state for user input while the tool is
executing. The user cannot perform input while the Output window is in use, so the tool cannot be
terminated. To forcibly terminate the tool, select the tool on the Task bar and input Control - C, or
Control - Z.
