Is there a free 32kb version of codewarrior 5.1 for HCS12(X) mcus?

[chrissam]

Hi all,

I am using MC9S12XDT512 and I have a code smaller than 32kb. When I download the CW 5.2 special edition which in the specifications says that supports the MC9S12XDT512 mcu I can not find it. Then i get CW 5.1 that supports the mcu. The problem is that when the evaluation ends, after 30 days have passed, the IDE does not open. A message that the license has expired is displayed and the program ends itself.

Shouldn't it be converted to work until 32kb?

Is there to run my program with a free license?

Thank you in advance,

Chris

Here is a direct link to the special edition

Then you don't have to manually install the license file.

Hello Fiona,

thank you for your answer. I have inserted the new license but i still get he same error. The error is:

I have tried to uninstall CW and install it to a different Hard drive. When I do that a different message is displayed. The message is:

Can you help me fix that?

The first message is displayed to me even if I have not inserted the new license.

Thank you in advance,

Chris

Hello Chris

Please check whether you put the license file in correct folder, it should be:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Freescale\CWS12v5.1

!!!Please do not put it in 'License' subfolder.

Then please check the environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE points to the right path of the license file.

The environment variable can be found by clicking on "start" menu of Windows ->settings->control panel->system ->Advanced ->environment variable

Please close CodeWarrior and run 'regservers.bat' which is under \bin subfolder in CW path.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Freescale\CWS12v5.1\bin

Another tip is to check the system time of the OS. Whether it was set correctly?

If the above does not help, please contact me again.  I also want to learn about your OS, is it WinXP, or Win7? And is it a 32bit, or 64bit OS?

For the launch error, please close CodeWarrior, and run ‘regservers.bat’. See the above for ‘regservers.bat’ location.

Do you have office 2007 installed? If yes, please right click on IDE.EXE (in window explorer), select Properties, then go to Compatibility tab.Uncheck "Run this program in compatibility mode for".

If the system is running Windows 7, please do following:

1) In the CodeWarrior installation directory, right-click on ide.exe and select Properties.

2) Click on the Compatibility tab.

3) For the Settings options, select Disable Desktop Composition.

Does the above work?
