ARM development kits

This is intentional.

The answer to your question depends on what you require from the compiler.

GCC !

By the way I guess that (1) and (2) are very probably goind to be the same as ARM has bought Keil in September last year...

A good GCC based low cost alternative is Crossworks for ARM (from Rowley), I've now used it on three project with good results.

Friendly,

I have used all three, plus Rowley CrossWorks and command line GCC. As you would expect there are pro's and con's to all.

I would suggest making a list of what you want the compiler to do and cost, THEN obtain demo's of all the options to see which suits you best.

As far as benchmarks go - are you interested in size or speed? Or are neither of importance if your processor is large enough? The presented benchmarks tend to contradict each other. The most important thing to you might actually be 'how reliable is the compiler', and benchmarks don't tell you that!

I would second that. I'm in the process of porting three projects from IAR to Crossworks

Rowley offers a 30-day trial. Try it. If nothing else, the IDE is a LOT better then IAR's - and much less buggy!

Any experience with ImageCraft?

No, can't help there.

Hi,

I try to find out which ARM (compiler) development kit is more popular ? There are quite a few choice available. Please make comments. Thanks.

The Keil compiler no longer exists. So 1 and 2 are the same.

The benchmarks are:-

Keil

IAR

These benchmarks were before Keil == ARM.

There is the

which has a set of benchmarks for "their" compiler which is a Gcc compiler.

As an interesting note I understand that the Greenhills licence forbids the running, or at least the publishing of any benchmarks.

The point about all these is they all show that the compiler they are selling is the better one..... Which would suggest that all benchmarks are meaningless.

On the other hand when it comes to dev kits. Atmel, IAR, Philips and ST all produce kits. They are all reasonable. IT depends on what peripheral set you want.

Opps, I see I already replied about gnuarm. Sorry...
