Lite Install option added to the installer

The e2 studio installer has been revised to include different modes of install to improve the ease of use for different use cases.

We now have 3 modes to choose from:


Lite Install mode provides a simplified experience focusing on simple coding and debugging. It includes all important features for normal development.

The Standard Install mode provides everything you get in the Lite Install with additional features for more advanced and in-depth debugging.

The Custom Install Mode gives you more control over what is installed and gives you various choices to customize your e2 studio product install.

A detailed list of what is installed in each mode is here:

Improve ability to configure event points

Improvements have been made to the IO Registers, Expressions view and Memory view that allows a faster way to create a hardware eventpoint for the selection in the view.

The feature is available via the view pop-up menu and is named "Add Event Break".



Accessing Eventpoints from the IO Register view

Configuring event points from the Eventpoints view is not always easy.

The IO Registers view now provides the ability to create an event break on a selected register to the Eventpoints.

Some event settings will also be automatically configured based on the register's information.



Copy selected IO registers to clipboard

While debugging/analyzing problems often it is needed to save the state of the I/O registers so they can be later be analyzed/differenced with another state.

It is now possible to select registers in the IO Registers window and copy to clipboard.



Ability to save IO registers in usable plain text format

You can now save all IO register info to a text file. Output from this feature can be seen below:
