Freedom & Flexibility - A New Way to Buy CodeWarrior Development Tools!
When building products based on today’s increasingly sophisticated and featurerich
devices, developers need tools which help them efficiently build, debug, and
analyze their complex development projects. Shrinking time to market is critical to
success and leveraging the experience of silicon designers working along side
tools developers decreases delay in your overall program. CodeWarrior™
Development Studio for StarCore™ MSC Edition combines a state–of–the–art
development studio supporting the advanced debug and profiling capabilities
inherent to Freescale’s MSC81xx and MSC71xx processors with tools that are
the outgrowth of close collaboration between DSP programmers, silicon and tools
designers ensuring thorough support of on-chip resources and allowing you to
leverage the silicon’s powerful diagnostic resources.
The intuitive CodeWarrior Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is easy to
navigate and provides a full–featured editor for creative applications. Once created,
applications are built and downloaded to the target with the click of a button. By
providing comprehensive visibility into the target processor, reliable control over
program execution, and an intuitive interface for setting up complex debugging
tasks, CodeWarrior allows you to spend less time debugging code and more time
developing your product. Easily tune your system using CodeWarrior’s substantial
profiling capabilities to identify and alleviate bottlenecks, enabling you to hit your
performance targets and ship your product faster.
