Hello group,

I'd like to hear some opinions regarding the Rowley CrossWorks for ARM toolchain. I know, this is a somewhat broad request, so I'll try to clarify things a bit more:

I am in the process of evaluating ARM toolchains which are to be used in university classes/projects.

Wishlist
1. stable, proven toolchain
2. preferably something "industry standard", so students use the tools which they might encounter in their future jobs
3. Cheap :)

There is some one around there who has a sig that says "pick any two from three... " :-)

Whilst Rowley is cheap you should also ask the other commercial compiler vendors as most will do special deals for education that are way below their normal prices. eg IAR, Keil, etc

Industry standard, stable, proven tool-chain would be IAR, Keil GHS (or even ADS)

There are also a lot of versions of Gcc and various libraries out there. Some better than others.
