Hi,

We've written a Windows 2000/XP based IDE (called ArmEd) which
interfaces with the GNUARM toolchain & Insight debugger. It also uses
OpenOCD to interface to the target JTAG port. You can create and
configure projects very easily, then build, download & debug them.

The IDE was developed for use with a LPC2214/FPGA development board
but can be used with other LPC2xxx targets. An integrated debugger &
simulator is in the pipeline.

Its *free* & you're welcome to try it out, take a look at http://
www.pdqlogic.com/ArmEd.html

I've be doing some Eclipse research recently, so I'm curious as to your
reasons why you went this route rather than use Eclipse?

Richard.

I'll give it a try.

At school we made something similar in
specs, with PsPad:

I am working on my ARM library, which nicely complements such an
envirnment.

Hi Richard,

We looked at Eclipse a while back and found it quite slow and
cumbersome and not so easy to get going with, although perhaps that
has changed. Having developed with VC++ for a number of years was
also a significant factor. ArmEd started as a programming editor and
we then added various features including interfaces to OpenOCD &
Insight. We're now in the process of adding an integrated debugger.

So no overwhelming reasons not to choose Eclipse it mainly came down
to the way things evolved and personal preference.

Dave

I tried Eclipse once. Its startup took much too long for my taste.
That is a killer for use in a classroom, so I dropped it.

I get 11 seconds from mouse click to fully loaded on my Linux box; I
can wait. I haven't timed in under WinXP but I suspect it takes a
great deal longer.

My problem with Eclipse is that I have to force it to use a Sun
version of java. It doesn't seem to like the GNU java that comes with
the system. That also means that I have to download a Sun version of
java and somehow get that to run. What a PITA!

Nevertheless, I like Eclipse enough to go to the effort to use it.

Dave,
I see your ARM/FGPA board up on your website. Is it available
for sale? How much?

Thanks-

*Brian

I suggest that you do not direct-link to the gnuarm.com toolchain download
as if it is your own. They have previously notified users about trying to
find ways to fund their bandwidth, and this kind of behavior won't help. If
you want to link, you should link to their home page, where they have the
opportunity to get advertising revenue to support the downloads. Otherwise,
you should consider offering to mirror their downloads so that you take (and
support) the bandwidth hit yourself.

Brian,

The ARM/FPGA board will be for sale in the coming weeks. We're going
through EMC testing at the moment. The 1 off board price will be in
the region of 225 Euros.

Point taken. We'll modify the link.
