Does current xC Documentation exist?

Post by teachop »

XC is so nice, but it is confusing to find contradictory programming information in the XMOS documentation.  Does there exist updated XC Specification and XC Reference documentation?  Can the obsolete stuff be removed to a legacy section to reduce confusion?

About the only thing that is obsolete in the XC Programming Manual is that stdcore is replaced by tile.

Everything else should work (even using the old stdcore should still work on the v13 tools).

The XC Programming Manual is incomplete now though because new features have been introduced.

How to use these features can be found here https://www.xmos.com/support/documentat ... category=P...

I have heard that work is done to create a new XC manual, give it some time.

Can we get a status on the update for XC Specification and XC Programming Guide?  I know a developer can locate most of this by comparing and contrasting the various newer sources - that is great stuff to dig through!  But still, it would be really helpful if the Specification and Guide were up to date.  Thank you!
