Chapter 2. Introduction
This manual is designed to answer, in tutorial form, the most common questions asked about using a Renesas Starter Kit: The tutorials
help explain the following:
• How do I compile, link, download, and run a simple program on the Renesas Starter Kit?
• How do I build an embedded application?
• How do I use Renesas’ tools?
The project generator will create a tutorial project with two selectable build configurations
• ‘Debug’ is a project built with the debugger support included.
• ‘Release’ build demonstrating code suitable for release in a product.
Files referred to in this manual are installed using the project generator as you work through the tutorials. The tutorial examples in this
manual assume that installation procedures described in the Renesas Starter Kit Quick Start Guide have been completed. Please refer
to the Quick Start Guide for details of preparing the configuration.
NOTE: These tutorials are designed to show you how to use the Renesas Starter Kit and are not intended as a comprehensive
introduction to the High-performance Embedded Workshop debugger, the compiler tool-chains or the E8a Emulator – please
consult the relevant user manuals for more in-depth information.
