Hi there folks, I am currently managing a project in voice encryption which uses the new Motorola 56156 DSP chip. My question is this: We have checked with Motorola and Domain Technologies (the manufacturer of our 56156 emulation package) and as far as we can tell there is no "C" compiler available for this chip. We are currently using the assembler we got from Domain, but this is a long and tedious process, especially in light of the fact that much of the code we need to use on this chip, has already been written in "C" for use on the 56001 chip, which was a previous generation of this product. Does anyone out there know if there is a compiler available for this chip from any source? (GNU etc.) You can respond to bpisacan@world.std.com directly, and/or post any information you think might be useful. Presently we are taking the assembly language output from the 56001 compiler, and modifying it for the 56156. This is not a fruitful effort as it is extremely error prone. Our only alternative is to re-write lots of code in assembly language, a process in itself quite error prone. any information would be appreciated. Thanks, Bob Pisacane
