在于圣荷西舉行的嵌入式大會(ESC)上, CodeSourcery宣布了用于ARM、ColdFire、IA32、MIPS、Power Architecture、Stellaris 和 SuperH處理器的Sourcery G++版本。新版本增強了啟動應用程序的性能,使得上手GNU/Linux應用開發更容易。 2010年春節發布的第二代指令集得到改進,在ARM Cortex-A系列上運行性能更高,比2009年版本高25%,這是在德州儀器的OMAP3530 Cortex-A8上測試的結果。新版本引入了對 microMIPS指令集架構的支持,浮點運算速度更快。對于飛思卡爾的QorIQ處理器來說,Sourcery G++ for Power代碼生成效率更高。 |
原文: Granite Bay, Calif. - At ESC San Jose, CodeSourcery announced the release of Sourcery G++ for ARM, ColdFire, IA32, MIPS, Power Architecture, Stellaris and SuperH processors. The latest release features enhancements that boost application performance and make it easier to get started with GNU/Linux application development. Improved Thumb-2 code generation in the spring 2010 release yields better performance on the ARM Cortex-A family, with a 25% speed-up on the CoreMark benchmark compared to the spring 2009 release as measured on a Texas Instruments OMAP3530 Cortex-A8 processor. The new release introduces support for the microMIPS instruction set architecture and faster software floating-point emulation routines for MIPS bare-metal targets. Sourcery G++ for Power features more efficient code generation for Freescale’s QorIQ processor and optimized core library routines for Freescale’s E500 processor for Linux and bare-metal development The new version of Sourcery G++ makes it simpler to use the Remote System Explorer (RSE) to debug Linux applications with GDB Server, includes enhanced support for flash programming via Segger J-Link, and features an update to the GNU Debugger (GDB) version 7.0.50. Other improvements to the Sourcery G++ Debug Sprite make it easier to debug in bare-metal and RTOS environments. “Our team is working hard to make it easier to develop embedded applications—and to make those applications faster and smaller,” said Mark Mitchell, Chief Sourcerer of CodeSourcery. “By working with the world’s leading silicon companies and by integrating our own technology with the best open-source tools, CodeSourcery is able to offer affordable, high-quality C and C++ development tools for a wide range of embedded platforms, including ARM, ColdFire, IA32, MIPS, Power and SuperH." Sourcery G++ contains enhanced versions of popular open-source tools, including an integrated development environment based on Eclipse and the Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools, C/C++ compilers, an assembler and linker, runtime libraries, and a source- and assembly-level debugger. Sourcery G++ runs on GNU/Linux or Microsoft Windows hosts (including Windows 7) and supports bare metal, RTOS, uClinux, GNU/Linux or Windows target systems. Sourcery G++ is available in Professional, Standard and Personal Editions. CodeSourcery is a member of the ACCESS Connect Ecosystem, the ARM Connected Community, the Freescale Tools Alliance Program, the Intel Embedded Alliance, the Microsoft Partner Network, the MIPS Alliance Program, the Renesas Alliance, the Samsung Mobile Innovator Program, and the TI Developer Network. |
