MicroAPL's development and porting tools are designed to be
compatible with many of the leading embedded development toolsets.
These tools allow developers to rapidly move existing
680x0 based code to the full range of ColdFire CPUs. Freescale Semiconductor also commissioned the development of the following products: Metrowerks,
Inc developed the CodeWarrior® integrated development
environment which included support for C, C++, Pascal and Java®
and was hosted on Windows, MacOS, Solaris® and
Linux. These tools could target a number of embedded
operating systems and processors. Our PortAsm range of products is fully compatible with the
CodeWarrior IDE and the assemblers it provides for the embedded
environments, for ColdFire and POWER Architecture targets. PortAsm is
available as a plug-in to run directly under CodeWarrior, providing a
tightly-integrated and easy-to-use development and debugging
environment. Tornado and VxWorks from Wind
River Systems, Inc together provide a sophisticated development
environment and powerful RTOS integrated into a complete solution for
embedded development, targeting a wide range of processors. The Gnu
compilers, assemblers and linkers are usually used for Tornado
development. PortAsm/68K for POWER Architecture, PortAsm/86 for POWER Architecture and
Mimic/68K are compatible with Tornado, VxWorks and the Gnu
tools, allowing WindRiver clients to migrate legacy 680x0 code to
POWER Architecture targets using Tornado. SingleStep® is one of the leading
debuggers/development environments for both the POWER Architecture and ColdFire
architectures. All of MicroAPL's embedded products are fully compatible with
SingleStep, in conjunction with the Diab Data and Metaware compilers,
assemblers and linkers. This means that SingleStep can be used to
debug code translated with PortAsm/68K for ColdFire,
PortAsm/68K for PowerPC, and PortAsm/86 for PowerPC.

Mentor
Graphics Corporation includes compilers, assemblers, linkers, and
the XRAY® debugging and development environment, targeting a wide
range of embedded processor architectures. MicroAPL's PortAsm/68K translators accept 680x0 source code
in Microtec format. PortAsm/68K for ColdFire and
CF68KLib are compatible with the Microtec ColdFire tools and
ASMCF assembler. PortAsm/68K for POWER Architecture and Mimic/68K
can be used in conjunction with XRAY to provide an
integrated development, code translation and source-level debugging
environment. In addition to the above, our PortAsm, Mimic/68K and
CF68KLib porting products have also been tested in conjunction
with the following embedded development tools:
Tornado®, VxWorks®, Diab® and SingleStep®
Microtec® Development Tools
Other supported toolsets
