Project management
All information about the debug session is collected in projects. A project holds information about the test system used, the connection type of the test system, the application to be tested, the necessary test system settings, etc.
Drag&drop
Drag&drop has become an essential feature for people working with Windows based systems. Throughout HiTOP drag&drop can be used for quick and efficient selections and entries. You can for example drag a program symbol from the workspace window to the memory window for the display of the associated memory region. Another example would be, dragging a variable from the source window to the watch window to monitor the contents of that variable in the watch window.
Automatic display of locals
The local variables of a function are automatically displayed in the "Locals" tab of the Watch window as soon as the function is entered during debugging.
Customizable windows
All HiTOP windows can be customized to your needs. This is especially handy for the windows displaying information in columns. Rearranging and selecting / deselecting of columns can easily be done. Also the colors, the fonts, etc. of the windows are user-definable. In addition you can define your own windows, e.g. to display information from yor system in a suitable way.
Execute Script toolbar
By activating the "Execute Script" toolbar, you can easily execute HiSCRIPT files and even assign HiSCRIPT files to toolbar buttons. A tool tip shows the HiSCRIPT file currently assigned to a button. The label of the button is also user definable. The pull down menu of the Execute Script toolbar gives access to the latest HiSRIPT files executed.
Integrated editor
HiTOP includes a full-featured editor with syntax high-lighting as well as features such as bookmarking, expand-collapse code, tool-tipp assistance and many more.

Editable tabs
The tabs of the windows can easily be modified to display labels that meet your specific needs.



Trace
For a given trace frame, the corresponding source line is displayed in the source window. This is maintained when the user scrolls through the Trace window. The trace can be searched for specific trace frames. The content of the trace can be saved to a file.

Derivative Support
The derivative support inside HiTOP5 enables the developer to see all special function registers of a microcontroller in a tree structure with explanation and to make easy modifications.
