RTSC / XDC (eXpanDed C) is a standard for reusable software components, optimized for real-time embedded systems. RTSC components have hardware-neutral formal interfaces, are configurable offline to optimize memory and performance, and support custom automation in the development environment via a scripting language.
The XDCtools product includes the following components:
The product documentation for this release is available in two formats:
Both formats are delivered with the product in the docs subdirectory. The most up-to-date docs can also be viewed in the RTSC-pedia
Release notes from previous product releases are available in the relnotes_archive directory. Note that XDCtools 3.21 (supports only the MSP430 device family) is shipped only with the Grace product.
XDCtools contains elements released under the Eclipse Public License v1.0 and a number of other open-source licenses, detailed here.
The following significant changes are included in XDCtools 3.22 :
Bugs against the XDCtools product maybe filed in the eclipse bugzilla.

The packages comprising the XDCtools release are uniquely identified by a compatibility key defined in the package.xdc file of a package. Please note that the package compatibility keys are independent of XDC product release numbers.
Package compatibility keys are intended to:
Package compatibility keys are composed of 4 comma-delimited numbers - M, S, R, P - where:

All releases have 4 digits (M.mm.pp.bb). This includes GA and pre-releases (engineering, EA etc.). Pre-releases are denoted with a suffix (e.g. 3.15.01.51-eng).
This product's version follows a version format, M.mm.pp.bb, where M is a single digit Major number, mm is 2 digit minor number, pp is a 2 digit patch number, and b is an unrestricted set of digits used as an incrementing build counter.
To support multiple side-by-side installations of the product, the product version is encoded in the top level directory, ex. xdctools_3_15_00_50.
Subsequent releases of patch upgrades will be identified by the patch number, ex. XDCtools 3.15.01.67 with directory xdctools_3_15_01_67. Typically, these patches only include critical bug fixes.
Please note that version numbers and compatibility keys are NOT the same. For an explanation of compatibility keys, please refer to the 'Upgrade and Compatibility Information' section.
Support questions on the product should be posted to the RTSC newsgroup. Check the XDCtools download site for the latest releases.
