The Current macro file drop-down list holds all of the macro files currently in use in the High-performance Embedded
Workshop system. These files are stored in the “Macros” folder within the High-performance Embedded Workshop
management information folder under the application data folder for each user profile. Any files that are copied into
this directory are automatically added to the Current macro file drop-down list.
The macros functions in the Current macro file selection are shown in the Macro functions list box. Changing the
Current macro file selection will automatically update this list. If you check the Show all available macro functions
check box then all macros currently defined are displayed in the list. When selected this option ignores the value of the
Current macro file drop-down list box.
It can be useful to use multiple macro files to logically hold related areas. For example you might like to create a
different macro file for use with different debugger targets.
To execute macro files that have relative paths, specify the initial directory in Initial directory. Change the directory in
the same way as using the change-directory command and execute macro files in the initial directory.
