The Tiger-BASIC IDE includes the functions to edit, compile,
source-level debug and download and is designed for Windows systems
Win98 or above. With its clear definitions, the Tiger-BASIC IDE enables
short development time.
The
compiler supports the full Tiger-BASIC language (BASIC-Tiger Manual #1)
as well as pseudo codes for controlling the compilation process.
Tiger-BASIC programs can have
unlimited length
unlimited number of variables
unlimited number of subroutines
unlimited number of symbols
Only the available memory in the module used sets the limits. Typical values for possible program length:
512kb FLASH : ca. 5000 ... 20.000 BASIC codelines
2MB FLASH : ca. 25.000 ... 100.000 BASIC codelines
4MB FLASH : ca. 50.000 ... 200.000 BASIC codelines
Free FLASH areas can be used as DATA areas for static or dynamic
information - Settings, calibration data, pictures, sounds,
data-logging recordings ... etc.
The compiler creates highly stable, compact and fast-runnning code. The
compiled runtime code can be debugged directly in the BASIC-Tiger
module - when you have the source code available. Without original
source code the modules gives no debug informationen whatsoever. A
Tiger-BASIC program can generally not be read from the module and thus
offers reliable protection against reverse engineering attempts and
unauthorized copies.
Furthermore an additional password protection mechanism can lockup the
erase function of the module. A password-secured BASIC-Tiger can
neither be erased nor programmed from unauthorized side. With this it
is prevented to inflict damage in security sensitive areas by unallowed
downloading of new software - e.g. in cash dispensers, ticket machines,
entry control systems, safes, vending machines ... etc.
The Tiger-BASIC features in head words:
Commonly known BASIC syntax and instructions
Fast running, highly stable runtime code
Multitasking: up to 32 BASIC tasks + 64 system tasks simultaneously
Subroutines with / without arguments, free nesting depth, dynamic, local variables, reentrant
Device drivers for powerful interfacing with minimum hardware requiremment
Comprehensive function library
Variable types: BYTE, WORD, LONG, REAL (double precision), STRING, ARRAY of type, FIFO of type
FLASH DATA areas with compile-time data and run-time write/read/erase funct.
In addition:
Contained
in the Tiger-BASIC IDE are also hundreds of sample programs and
applications for quick reference experiences, illustrating directly the
use of special functions and techniques. All samples and applications
coming in source code with the IDE are free for use in your own projects
New functions, device drivers and IDE versions are free of cost available through web, e-mail and on disk
