Hi,
if you
talk about "Eclipse on embedded Systems" I suppose that you refer to eRCP as
that is the embedded arm of the Eclipse project. The Java part of eRCP is
supposed to run on J2ME CDC/FP environments and in that perspective the the
question of platform support breaks down to the availablity of a VM. In other
words, once you have a CDC/FP compatible VM for your target system, you will be
able to run the non-native parts of eRCP.
The
available CDC VMs already cover a large variety of embedded platforms. you will
find implementation for CPU cores like ARM, x86, MIPS or PowerPC as well as
operating systems such as Linux, Windows CE, VxWorks, QNX etc.
As far
as the native Eclipse components are concerned (eg. eSWT / SWT implementations),
life is a little harder and platform support requires more porting efforts. So
far, only those platforms published on the Eclipse sites are supported
officially. I assume that for eRCP/eSWT the variety will grow over
time.
Regards,
Jo
Hello,
I am developing software for
embedded systems (8051, ARMs and DSPs) and I am evaluating
Eclipse.
So far I haven’t found any
information about using Eclipse with different target microprocessors. Has
anyone of you experience with Eclipse and embedded systems? Any good starting
point?
Any help is
appreciated,
regards
MEF
