Embedded Linux Development Using Eclipse

The Eclipse environment solves the problem of having an integrated development environment (IDE), which is time consuming and costly. Embedded tools can also be easily integrated into Eclipse. The C / C ++ CDT is an ideal embedded code to be embedded in. Eclipse simplifies embedded system development and then it is integrated into larger platforms and frameworks.

In this book, Doug Abbott examines Eclipse, an IDE, which can be vital in saving money and the development of an embedded system. Eclipse was created by IBM in 2001 and then became an open-source project in 2004. Since then it has become the de-facto IDE for embedded developers. Virtually all of the major Linux vendors have these platforms, including MontVista, LynuxWorks, and Wind River.

* Details the Eclipse Integrated Development Environment (IDE) essential to streamlining your embedded development process
* Overview of the latest C / C ++ Developer's Toolkit (CDT)
* Includes case studies of Eclipse use including Monta Vista, LynuxWorks, and Wind River
