Hi, Some Questions: My Arm GCC for LPC21xx is not very well setup on my PC, and thinking of... a) UltraEdit+GCC Had anybody tried using UltraEdit32 as simple IDE for GCC? I'm thinking of buying a copy of UltraEdit32 and use it on either GCC from gnuarm.com or codesourcery. I only need a good editor with capability of calling the GCC Compiler+linker. Capability of able to move you directly to the code line with errors once you click on the compilation status windows (as in Ms Visual Studio) is NOT needed. I'm using windows' notepad for source file editing now... b) Visual Studio as IDE for GCC? I've a copy of Ms Visual Studio Ver6. Is it possible/ difficult to customise the Ms IDE for GCC?? Will only try that if somebody says is a piece of cake.. c) Windows CE .net 4.2/Platform builder Anybody uses Windows CE .net for embedded code development?? Is WEIRD idea but this software package might have a compiler which is able to compile anything down to embedded boot code and etc, and it comes with a very very huge, scale-able OS.... Regards /MH |

Not much comfort like in VS but at least syntax highlighting and some pretty good text editing capabilities. I now use IBM's Eclipse 3.0 and I don't wish back to the old days of Ultra Edit. Eclipse with the CDT plugin (needed for C development) is a powerful yet flexible (and free!) IDE allowing easy integration of different compilers and other tools (like the LPC download utility). IMHO, it plays in the same league as VS (no flamewar if anyone disagrees, please). There is a very good tutorial at http://www.newmicros.com/download/appnotes/ARM/TiniARM_Dev_Eclipse.pdf (12MB file!) describing how to setup cygwin, gcc, eclipse, boot loader - in short, everything you need to start developing for the LPC2000 family. Give it a try, you won't be dissapointed (except, may be, by the startup time of Eclipse - it's written in JAVA entirely). HTH, Jens |

Yeah I use UltraEdit32 right now for my IDE with GCC. Works great. I love
it. Output window, function keys to run compiler. Highly recommended.

You can get a very nice free source code editor at http://www.crimsoneditor.com/ It can be configured to call external programs such as a compiler or linker, so you could use it as a simple IDE. Hope this helps.

Eclipse is ok but a huge download and a bit of an overkill. Could look at Dev-Cpp http://www.bloodshed.net - small and simple. Regards Spen |

This comes setup to work with mingw, and there is a howto available to set it up to work with arm-elf-gcc. http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html Regards Anton Erasmus |

I use the Signum Systems JetJTAG, and their Chameleon software. They had to
fix a bunch of bugs and support for the LPC2000 cpus, but they finally got it
working. Works great. Very happy with it. Their debugging software Chameleon is
very good.
