Description

The TASKING VX-toolset for the Nios II brings to developers the power of Altium’s sophisticated, next-generation Viper C compiler technology framework, allowing them to take full advantage of the popular FPGA-based Nios II embedded processor from Altera. With its Viper technology, the TASKING VX-toolset for Nios II is able to generate code with the level of execution speed and code density needed for tomorrow’s automotive, industrial and communications applications. The Nios II compiler features state-of-the-art capabilities such as MISRA C code checking, profiling through code instrumentation and run-time error checking. The TASKING VX-toolset for Nios II comprises:

• Plug-in for Eclipse based IDE from Altera
• Viper-based C compiler
• Assembler with macro-preprocessor
• C libraries, run-time libraries, floating-point libraries
• Linker and locator

The trial version that you can download below is fully functional, but allows a limited number of symbols and C code statements. The restrictions are described in detail in the readme file which is part of the download. Although the trial version can be tested in a stand-alone setup, we recommend you to install it into an existing Altera IDE installation as that allows for the best performance comparison with Altera's GNU compiler.
