Visual C++ Development Tools Integrated to Support Linux Operating System

LynuxWorks, Inc.lLynux integrates the Microsoft Visual C++ Integrated Development Environment (IDE) with development tools for the Linux operating system. The product is compatible with LynuxWorks' BlueCat Linux and other Linux 2.2.12 distributions.

Microsoft Visual C++ used in conjunction with VisualLynux, provides a comprehensive workbench for developing scalable, distributed applications for embedded real-time systems used on the Internet and traditional client/server implementations.

The system contains BlueCat Linux debugging tools along with wizards and application windows to extend Visual C++ to Linux "target" processors, giving programmers the capability to develop Linux applications from within the context of Visual C++. The system includes the Target Wizard, an interactive tool for configuring and connecting to Linux-based "target" systems. After running Target Wizard, VisualLynux provides tools that automatically know how to download programs to the Linux system and execute and debug them from the Microsoft Windows-based workstation.

The system will automatically recompile Linux applications, download newly rebuilt programs to Linux, and start the applications under control of the VisualLynux debugger. In addition, the system includes tools for importing and exporting traditional Linux "makefiles" and an on-line help system, which provides detailed system information needed for creating Linux applications.
