The tight integration between the QNX Neutrino real-time operating system and the QNX Momentics IDE offers the undisputed best optimisations for faster development, error detection, and code optimisation.
QNX also offers as part of its standard commercial product its own customised Eclipse plug-ins, including new visualisation tools that radically simplify the job of migrating, debugging, and optimizing software for multi-core processors.
'QNX has always been at the forefront when it comes to incorporating the latest Eclipse technologies into its tools', says Mike Milinkovich, Executive Director of the Eclipse Foundation.
'QNX Momentics IDE was one of the first Eclipse-based products on the market and, with this latest award-winning release, continues to be a leader in leveraging open source as a cornerstone for innovation'.
This is the second consecutive year QNX has been recognised for its contributions to the Eclipse community.
Last year, Alain Magloire, a software developer in the QNX development tools group, was chosen as the Top Committer.
QNX was also recognised as a finalist in the Best Commercial Eclipse-based Development Tool category in 2006 for the QNX Momentics development suite.
QNX is a founding member of Eclipse and has served as project lead of the C/C++ Development Tools (CDT) Project, one of the most popular Eclipse-based integration development environments, since its inception.
'As one of the original members of Eclipse and the lead organisation for the CDT Project, our contributions to the Eclipse community are a great source of pride for our company', says Mark Roberts, Director Of Product Management at QNX Software Systems.
'The selection of the QNX Momentics IDE as the best commercial developer tool proves how companies can leverage open source frameworks while successfully differentiating their product through innovative, value-added development'.
