About this Example
==================
This example demonstrates how to use the IAR EWARM IDE to build
a QP application.
IAR Project File
----------------
The IAR EWARM project file provided with this example uses relative paths
to the QP/C framework location (includes, port, and libraries. These
relative paths must be modified when the project is moved to different
relative location.
Stack Size and Heap Size
------------------------
In this project, the size of the C stack and heap are determined in
the linker script blinky-qk.icf (see the next section).
Linker Script
-------------
The IAR linker script provides a template of the recommended linker script
for QP applications. This file needs to be customized to set the
application-specific sizes of the Stack and Heap. This file can be edited
from the IAR EWARM IDE via the Project Options/Linker settings.
Startup Code
============
The startup code for the EFM32PG1B200F256GM48 MCU used in this project is
located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
3rd_party\efm32pg1b\iar\startup_efm32pg1b.s
The file startup_efm32pg1b.s provides a template of the recommended
startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
handling policy.
***
NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
should NOT return.
