CODEO Delopment Environment

Developing embedded applications for embedded virtualization requires specific support from the integrated development environment.

The Eclipse-based IDE CODEO supports system architects with graphical configuration tools, provides all the components software engineers need to develop embedded applications and includes comprehensive little helpers to finish embedded projects in a time-saving and cost-efficient way: Guided configuration, remote debugging (down to the hardware instruction level), target monitoring, remote application deployment, and timing analyses. Of course, CODEO provides standard application development features such as compiler, assembler and linker.

PikeOS and ELinOS Integration

CODEO uses the Plug-In mechanism to tightly integrate the PikeOS and ELinOS products. The interaction with the user takes place via Eclipse views. Those are presented by means of eclipse perspectives in order to provide a user-centric experience. During each step of the development (e.g. configuration, development, debugging) there is one perspective that offers the user the right tools for the current work flow.

All products are integrated into the same IDE and can be used simultaneously, even with other extensions from out partners or other 3rd party tools.

In addition to that, for all of our products a hardware emulator is available. You can run PikeOS as well as ELinOS on your target architecture without having access to the real hardware. This allows to work in big teams without the bottleneck of waiting on the availability of the physical board. The QEMU machine emulator is directly integrated into the CODEO environment.
