According to tech support, it is the linker and it is automatic as long as you don't remove or change the label for the appropriate vector. But that might be a recent innovation.
ry nice IDE, and there are
I actually use it (although an older version) extensively at work for ARM7 projects. We've moved away from IAR for MSP430 - Rowley is better, not to mention cheaper. I do use the Kickstart version for some of my home MSP430 projects; since they upped the code size from
2K to (?)8K, it's become really useful for a wide range of projects.For AVR, I use WinAVR at home and Rowley at work. I don't work with PIC if I can avoid it, but when I do, I'm either using raw asm or CCS's compiler.
The thing is, those work projects were all old (>10 years, some of them) projects that have been rolled into progressively newer and newer compilers. They've been on EWARM for a long time already and all the magical build steps are set up (some of them being seriously magical).
