Bug Report: Missing ARM Simulator

I'm trying to use the ARM simulator in a fresh install of CrossWorks ARM, on macos 10.15.7 Catalina.

 

The CrossWorks version is:

   CrossWorks for ARM

   Release 4.10.6.2023102001.54505

   macOS x64

 

When selecting the 'ARM Simulator' target, a red error message appears along the bottom of the window. It is very long and only a small section of it is shown. It seems to be saying that 'dlopen' cannot find a file.

 

The directory is "~/Library/Rowley Associates Limited/CrossWorks for ARM/v4/packages/targets/Analog_ADuC7000" and the filename it wants is  "ADuc7000SimulatorMemory.so_macos_x64".

 

That directory has these other simulator files:

 

   ADuC7000SimulatorMemory.so            

   ADuC7000SimulatorMemory.so_macos_x86  

   ADuC7000SimulatorMemory.so_solaris_x86

   ADuC7000SimulatorMemory.dll

 

One for Linux, one for 32bit macos, one for solaris, and a DLL for Windows. Nothing for 64bit macos. These are all dated "Dec 15  2011". 

 

Am I out of luck? Will an update add this file someday?  

 

There's also a header file and a C++ source file in that directory. Can I build it myself?

 

Thank you!

  This package looks rather dated. We'll update it.

  As a workaround you can set the 

  Memory Simulation File

  property to

  $(StudioDir)/bin/ARMSimulatorMemory$(HostDLL)

  and the 

  Memory Simulation Parameter 

  property to

  RAM;0x10000;0xF800;ROM;0x80000;0x2000;RAM;0xFFFF0000;0x10000

  I apologize for taking so long to get back to you.

  Thank you for the workaround! Now it's back to figuring out how to use the IDE... :-)
