Like2Learn - 2011-01-06 18:21:00
I am considering Freescale i.MX processor for my project, and I happenily know the Freescale also supports Linux. I would like to know what kind of IDE is typically used by developers of Freescale Linux, CodeWarrior or Eclipse? Does Freescale provide something similar to WindRiver Workbench? ...Assessment on Freescale Linux IDE & Dev Tools
