The RealView® Development Suite 4.0 is a complete, end-to-end solution for software development supporting all ARM® processors and ARM CoreSight™ debug technology. This full-featured product enables developers to begin software development, optimization and test ahead of silicon availability, significantly reducing application time-to-market and ensuring the highest degree of software quality.
The RealView Development Suite 4.0 is available is a Standard and Professional Edition. The Standard Edition offers the following components
- The highly optimizing ARM Compiler targeted at currently available devices
- ARM Workbench IDE, which aims to increase software developer's productivity by helping with project creation and improves insight in the source, object and executable code.
- RealView Debugger supporting JTAG and CoreSight enabled debugging
RealView Development Suite 4.0 Professional incorporates the best-in-class ARM Compiler and market-leading ARM Profiler enabling applications to easily achieve both high performance and optimal code size. The product includes support for the latest Cortex™-A8 and Cortex™-A9 processors and includes vectorizing compilation for the NEON™ media processing engine which can increase the performance of multimedia applications in standard C code by more than 200%. RealView Development Suite 4.0 Professional adds the following features:
- The highly optimizing ARM Compiler, supporting all modern versions of the ARM, Thumb and Thumb-2 instruction sets and supporting the NEON SIMD instruction set with the vectorizing NEON compiler.
- Intelligent code linking, supporting automatic removal of unused code and placement of code and data in complex memory maps.
- Link-time code generation, which enables cross source-file optimization while neatly fitting into existing make file technology. Multi-core debug providing outstanding visibility of the entire system.
- Non-intrusive Streaming profiling and Trace of software executing for long periods of time, minutes, hours or days, while running at operational frequencies.
- Profiler-driven compilation automatically optimizes software based on its dynamic behavior. This improves both performance, by more aggressively optimizing hotspots for performance, and codesize, by more aggressively optimizing 'cold code' for codesize.
- High performance pre-silicon software development using Real-Time System Models of complete ARM processor cores and boards running at around 200MHz.
