The Luminosity IDE is a Linux and Solaris-based IDE powered by the Eclipse platform, giving developers complete control over creating, editing, compiling, managing and debugging C/C++ and Java embedded and real-time applications.
Developers can easily select the project wizard to jump start development and easily view all process and thread activity taking place on the target through the system viewer.
The IDE offers a rich set of features that allows developers a variety of programmes and options, including: Platform Administration that allows users to configure and manage different cross environments with OS targets such as BlueCat Linux for Intel x86 or LynxOS RTOS for PowerPC; Target Administration to help users define the exact hardware target to use; the Build Engine provides options for debugging and building final projects; a Project Wizard allows users to easily create a project coding framework (C,C+); and a Kernel Wizard enables developers to create C projects to build kernels.
