cannot print hex values LIBDEF_PRINTF_ALLOW_HEXINT

Hello,

I cannot print hex values using %x.

I am using Codewarrior 7.1 build 14

I found a thread about this posted by CrasyCat. Where CrasyCat says "Open the project" and "Activate target" can someone please explain how to do this?

Do I close my project and open the mcp that is being referenced? I tried opening a few of the mcps in that directory and hitting alt-F7 but none of them give me the "C/C++ Preprocessor" panel

I am assuming the mcp file is a new name now. But I have no idea what Activate target "2i ColdFire RegABI" means to do. The rest of the instructions I understand.

Here are the instructions that were posted by CrasyCat:

You can activate support for display of Hexadecimal number in the following way:

- Start the IDE

- Open the project {Install}\ColdFire_Support\msl\MSL_C\MSL_ColdFire\Project\MSL_C.CF.v1.word.mcp (where {Install} refers to your CodeWarrior installation directory)

- Activate target "2i ColdFire RegABI"

- Open the target settings dialog (press ALT+F7)

- Switch to the "C/C++ Preprocessor" panel

- Add following line in there:

#define LIBDEF_PRINTF_ALLOW_HEXINT 1

- Close the Target Settings dialog pressing OK

- Press the Make button to rebuild the library

- rebuild your project.

printf should support %X from now on.

I was hoping that I just needed to open my project and go to the"C/C++ Preprocessor" panel and

add following line in there:

#define LIBDEF_PRINTF_ALLOW_HEXINT 1

But that didn't work...

Please help!

This is what I did to get %x to work in printf - although I don't think this is the way it was intended to be done:

I added printf_tiny_IO.c to my project

In my project I hit alt-f7 and added the following:

#define LIBDEF_PRINTF_ALLOW_HEXINT 1

Then %x worked in printf.
