Eclipse-based embedded dev tools support any 2.4 or 2.6 kernel

Feb 4, 2004 — by LinuxDevices Staff — from the LinuxDevices Archive — views

TimeSys has updated its Eclipse-based TimeStorm Linux Tool Suite, adding support for any 2.6 Linux kernel and lowering the price of the TimeStorm IDE to $795 per seat. The company claims that TimeStorm is the first development tool based on Eclipse to support 2.6-series kernels.

TimeStorm is a GUI development tool for creating, editing, compiling, and debugging C/C++/Java embedded and real-time systems. It adds embedded development features to the Eclipse Platform to simplify project creation, target management, cross-platform development, multi-threaded kernel debugging, and code version sharing, according to TimeSys.

According to TimeSys, TimeStorm has been “tested and certified to work with standard 2.4 and 2.6 Linux kernels from the open source community and commercial distributions from the leading Linux vendors, including Red Hat Linux.”

The TimeStorm IDE can be used standalone, or in conjunction with other components in TimeSys's $4,795 TimeStorm Linux Tool Suite, which includes:

  • Linux Development Suite (LDS) plug-ins for building, configuring and booting a custom Linux system;
  • Linux Verification Suite (LVS) plug-ins for automating the testing and validation of the Linux system, incorporating more than 1,300 Linux Test Project and TimeSys Linux performance tests.

“Our goal is to continually deliver the tools needed to accelerate the adoption of Linux throughout the embedded community,” said TimeSys CEO Larry Weidman.
