11 Revision History

Changes from August 5, 2022 to December 15, 2023 (from Revision I (August 2022) to Revision J (December 2023))

  • Corrected example for multiple element swizzle accessor workaround.Go
  • Corrected example code.Go

Changes from October 22, 2021 to August 5, 2022 (from Revision H (October 2021) to Revision I (August 2022))

  • Added __C7X_HOSTEM__, __C7120__, and __C7504__ preprocessor symbols.Go
  • Simplified example program syntax since the cl7x compiler now accepts the constructor-style syntax for vector initialization.Go
  • Native vector types are now called "TI vector types." In addition, several limitations related to complex vector types have been resolved. See the C7000 C/C++ Optimizing Compiler User's Guide for details.Go
  • Both cl7x and Host Emulation compilers now accept constructor-style syntax for vector initialization.Go
  • Clarified types of accessors supported, and updated workarounds for swizzle accessors.Go
  • Modified example code.Go
  • Updated table of key terms found in vector-related errors and warnings.Go
  • Updated table of errors and warnings related to syntax changes.Go

Changes from March 15, 2021 to October 22, 2021 (from Revision G (March 2021) to Revision H (October 2021))

  • Added a list of pointer comparisons operators to vector and complex element pointer types.Go

Changes from December 31, 2020 to March 15, 2021 (from Revision F (December 2020) to Revision G (March 2021))

  • Allow Visual C++ build tools versions after 2017.Go
  • Both release and debug-compatible static run-time libraries are provided for use with Microsoft Visual C++.Go
  • The initial values of control registers are now set to the values used in a hardware reset instead of setting all control register values to 0.Go

Changes from May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (from Revision E (May 2020) to Revision F (December 2020))

  • Updated the numbering format for tables, figures, and cross-references throughout the document.Go
  • Noted that Host Emulation support is an experimental product, and its limitations should be considered.Go
  • Added -fno-strict-aliasing option to command line for g++ compiler. Corrected error in sample code.Go
  • Array access operators are not supported for vector and complex element pointer types.Go
  • The vector ternary operator is not supported with C7000 Host Emulation.Go
  • Modified example code.Go
  • Modified example code.Go
