What is the FPU?

A

The Floating-Point Unit (FPU) enables hardware Floating-Point calculation.

Q

How do I activate the hardware FPU?

A

The compiler-specific hardware floating-point support is compiled in, using the plattform "netx90_app_hardfp" in the waf-scripts.

The legacy option to modify compiler flags on your own is to open the file "C:\ProgramData\Hilscher GmbH\netX Studio CDT\BuildTools\waf\waflib\extras\hilscher_toolchains.py" and edit in the function "configure_device_netx90" the relevant flags as needed.
