Eclipse Vs Classic IDE

Schwac — Fri, 22 Jun 2012 00:25:56 GMT

I have recently switched from the classic version of Codewarrior to the Elipse Version (V10.2). So far, I have had a few issues of various sorts (generally slow speed, can't move projects without patching up the project folders). Are other people experiencing the smae things? The Classic version just seemed simpler and cleaner... How long is the Classic version going to be supported? Are features still being developed for it and bugs fixed? At which point would it be reccomended to switch to the new version? Are there any truly exclusive and important features/capabilities that the Eclipse version has that the other does not?

Thank You,

Cory

Hello Cory,

It is probable that, as new MCU types are released, they will be supported by the Eclipse version only. This thread may indicate the beginnings of this process. The change may be forced when you need to use a derivative that is not supported by the Classic version of CW.

Regards,

Mac

Thanks for the reply. I will contiue to push on with using Eclipse... I guess i'm just wondering if many of the current complexities are going to be simplified.
