The editor can distinguish that start with /**, /*!, /// or //! as Documentation. Enhanced feedback in case source browsing data cannot be generated. The source browser data is generated faster as it is now running as a separate thread. The following improvements have been made to the Source Browser: For example, it is now possible to debug and control a device with one A9, one M7, and two M4 cores, all synchronized by the Arm Coresight CTI mechanism under debugger control. The multicore support has been extended to support any number of asymmetrical cores. See IAR Embedded Workbench C-SPY Debugging Guide for more information. This means that both code coverage and profiling data can be collected during infinite test runs. The code coverage and profiling windows in C-SPY can now be feed with streaming trace data when using the IAR I-jet Trace probes. Streaming trace for improved code coverage and profiling features The C++ library supports C++14 with no C++17 additions. The compiler now supports all C++17 features.

The default Standard C is now C18 (ISO/IEC 9899:2018).
