The publication of the application binary interface for the ARM architecture promotes portability of binary code and interoperability of software development tools across a range of operating systems

ARM has published the application binary interface (ABI) for the ARM architecture to promote portability of binary code and interoperability of software development tools across the full range of industry-proven operating systems. The specification has been developed in collaboration with companies including Intel, Metrowerks, Montavista, Nexus Electronics, PalmSource, symbian and Wind River.

Compliance to the ABI by tool chains will enable software developers to integrate binary code from multiple sources regardless of which tool chain was used.

Price and time-to-market benefits are achieved as the specification enables the choice of the most appropriate tool chain based on its suitability for the specific development.

The ABI specification for the ARM architecture is available now at: frp,m the ARM website.

The ARM RealView Developer Suite v2.0 already complies with the ABI specification.

ARM's Gnu tools solution for the ABI will be available in 2004.
