Publication number: US20220229642A1
Application number: 17/615,043

Abstract:
A software development device enables software to be shared between controllers using semiconductor devices having different specifications. The software development device generates an execution code executed by a controller having one or more pads from a source code. The software development device includes an analysis module for analyzing the source code to extract a designation for the one or more pads; and a generation modules for generating an execution code including a code corresponding to the extracted designation for the pads with reference to hardware of a target controller.

Publication number: US20220214867A1
Application number: 17/613,452

Abstract:
A computing system includes a computing device including a processor and a software development device for creating an application program executed by the computing device. The software development device includes a first compiler that compiles a source including one or more instructions and data to be processed to generate an intermediate code. The computing device includes a second compiler that generates a machine code by reflecting a hardware configuration of the computing device in the one or more instructions included in the intermediate code. The processor of the computing device executes the generated machine code after the machine code is generated.

Publication number: US20220214958A1
Application number: 17/613,447

Abstract:
A programming support system includes one or more terminal devices and storage accessible from the one or more terminal devices. Each of the terminal devices includes: a providing module for providing a development environment for a program; an acquisition module for acquiring information indicating content of a failure event that has occurred in the program. A determination module determines an address from information indicating the content of the failure event according to predetermined rules. The storage holds information for each failure event in association with an address determined from the information indicating the content of each failure event.
