#139708 - Terminology Responding to: ???'s previous message |
A Compiler is a thing that translates source code in a high-level language (eg, 'C', Pascal) into machine code - the process is known as "compiling" or "compilation";
An Assembler is a thing that translates assembly source code (a low-level language) into machine code - this process should not be called "compiling" or "compilation"; An IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is just a front end that provides a fancy interface to compilers, assemblers, linkers, etc - and usually adds such things as an editor and some sort of project manager. As I understand it, the SI Labs IDE uses the Keil compiler, assembler, etc. Note that "Compiling" refers specifically to the processing done by a compiler - you do not "compile" assembler source files! |

| which compiler? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Silabs IDE | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| and was this inline assembler in C-program? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| No, not an assembler in C | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| SILabs IDE is NOT a compiler | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| I was just referring to the IDE used. | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| Assuming The Keil C Compiler | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| No, that's wrong | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| So much for the manual | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Yes, that's it! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
