Compiler Support

UDE supports cross compiler packages for the C166, ST10, XE166, XC2000, TriCore, Power Architecture, Arm, RH850 and SH-2A families – HighTec (GNU), Tasking, Wind River, Byte Craft, ImageCraft, and Renesas. Using the Universal Debug Engine, you will be able to optimize the flexibility and efficiency of the selected compiler. A description of all supported compilers can be seen below. Since each compiler has its’ own characteristics and features, please contact us if you have special development, or system requirements.

The GNU C/C++ Compiler, for the AURIX/TriCore, PowerArchitecture or ARM architecture is based on the GNU software.
The GNU software was ported and modified by HighTec Systeme GmbH.
