– Unicode supportThe Unicode standard for consistent encoding, representation, and handling of text is now supported.

This means that you can use Unicode characters (alphabetic, numeric, symbols, emoji, etc) in the source code.

– IDE performance improvementsGeneral improvements of the IDE startup time and overall performance.

– E2 emulator supportC-SPY now supports the Renesas E2 on-chip debugging emulator.

– Stack protectionThe IAR C/C++ compiler for RX now supports stack protection.

A canary value will be placed between the stack variables and the return address so that the system can detect corruption of a function return address before the function returns to that address.

The compiler will use heuristic to determine whether a function needs stack protection or not.

If any defined local variable has the array type or a structure type that contains a member of array type, the function will need stack protection.

See the IAR C/C++ Development Guide for more information.

– C-STAT MISRA CThe MISRA C 2004 package in C-STAT has been updated with about 20 new checks, some of which are enabled by default.

– Updated user documentationThe Assembler User Guide and IAR C/C++ Development Guide have been updated to reflect the product changes.
