The PikeOS system can be configured using PIK, the graphical configuration editor within CODEO. PIK includes a powerful integrity checker that makes it almost impossible to create an invalid configuration.

CODEO offers a comprehensive C/C++ and Java development environment including project management, code browser, CVS access and much more.

CODEO for PikeOS incorporates a graphical feature assembler to add and remove partitions, applications  and services such as drivers, stacks and I/O servers.

Applications developed with CODEO can be deployed directly on a running PikeOS target.

Any application running on PikeOS can be debugged independently of all other concurrent applications. Several applications can be debugged at the same time.

Application timing behavior can be analyzed, using the tracing capability incorporated in each partition. Trace points can be filtered, used as triggers, and extended using the graphical trace configuration and visualization editor.

CODEO also includes monitoring capabilities, enabling users to view kernel objects, threads, task and partition information. If configured, the status of each partition can be changed remotely.

PikeOS comes with a CPU emulator, which allows to start application development even before the real hardware is available. Due to the modular approach of PikeOS, simulation of I/O channels can be completely transparent to the application. For each of the supported CPU families, a corresponding CPU emulator is available.

Updates and upgrades can be deployed remotely on PikeOS targets without rebooting the system or physically accessing the hardware.
