Eclipse Unites the Embedded, Enterprise Environments
,----[ Quote ]
| Interestingly enough, the shift from proprietary to open-standard
| IDE has been driven both by embedded software developers and
| embedded vendors. The software developers were frustrated by having
| to change development environments every time they changed a key
| IC or RTOS, and the embedded vendors were equally frustrated
| having to build and maintain IDEs. The Eclipse environment
| offers a standard interface regardless of processor architecture,
| host platform, or embedded RTOS that makes it straightforward for
| end users to migrate their application code and for embedded
| vendors to migrate their tools.
