Project converter tools

Our project converter tools allow you to create an IAR Embedded Workbench project file using a project file from another tool as the input. The tools can convert source code files and the project files, and will automatically transfer information such as file groups, source file names, defined symbols, include paths, build configurations and exclude-from-build.

The following converter tools are currently available:

• Keil μVision to IAR Embedded Workbench for Arm
• Atollic TrueSTUDIO to IAR Embedded Workbench for Arm
• Keil µVision to IAR Embedded Workbench for 8051 
• Renesas HEW or e² studio to IAR Embedded Workbench for RX
• Renesas HEW to IAR Embedded Workbench for H8
• Renesas CS+ to IAR Embedded Workbench for RL78
• Texas Instruments Code Composer Studio to IAR Embedded Workbench for MSP430

You can access the project converter tools from within the IAR Embedded Workbench IDE, from the Tools menu.
