Algorithm development: from Matlab to Segger Embedded Studio

[LiseL]

Hi, I am currently working in Matlab to develop my DSP algorithms and will use the Matlab coder and Embedded coder to convert them to C code. Afterwards I will import the .c and .h files into Segger Embedded Studio.  Has anyone experience with this process? Any advice on this is appreciated.

So long as it generates compliant 'C' code, and all the dependencies are available, there should be no problem.

Neither SES nor its underlying GCC toolchain can tell whether your code was hand-written or machine-generated.

I would suggest leveraging off the existing DSP code and libraries; I have used them with both Keil and IAR with good results, though not yet looked into the libraries on SES though I think they are compatible. Some of the libraries are optimised for DSP code on the Cortex-M4 and therefore should be much faster than vanilla C code

CMSIS should be standard 'C' code - so shouldn't be any issues using it with SES or any other IDE ...

[hmolesworth]

Perhaps I wasn't clear; the usual course is to load the appropriate library and not the source tree, in this case for IAR; SES would probably use the GCC library, but I haven't yet tried that.
