Vector Software, the leading provider of dynamic software test tools for embedded systems, has integrated the VectorCAST tool suite with the newest version of the IAR Systems Embedded Workbench. The VectorCAST integration enables out-of-the-box testing of real-time applications. Using J-Link, VectorCAST users can easily migrate projects developed on IARs KickStart Kits to production boards.
This latest VectorCAST integration supports testing software directly on-target or with the instruction set simulator (C-SPY) for Amtel (ARM, AVR), Texas Instruments (MSP430), Renesas (M16C, M32C, 78K), and Silicon Laboratories (8051).
VectorCAST is the premier dynamic software analysis tool for embedded applications, commented Mats Ullstr
