The eCosPro Developer's Kit consists of: * eCosPro - a stable, fully tested, certified and supported version of eCos and RedBoot * the latest eCos and RedBoot documentation * a graphical IDE (available Q4 2003 for selected platforms) * a prebuilt compiler toolchain (Linux or Windows based) * prebuilt eCos host tools (Linux or Windows based) * prebuilt RedBoot binaries * incident and advice-line support for eCosPro and (optionally) the host tools * additional hardware platform support not currently available for public download * a professional installer * rolling releases and extended support options * a PPP stack add-on for the standard eCos TCP/IP package eCosPro is targeted at professional developers looking to integrate eCos within commercial products. It is subjected to extensive testing within the eCosCentric test farm (an automated array of build hosts and target platforms) prior to release. To ensure the highest level of platform stability, boards will typically execute more than 15,000 eCos tests in the test farm over a two week period. Few platforms in the periodic public releases of eCos receive the level of testing associated with the eCosPro releases. Organizations deploying or evaluating eCos will therefore benefit from the stability and reliability of eCosPro and from the extensive support options that eCosCentric provides. The eCosPro Developer's Kit includes an incident support package, giving developers the reassurance that problems can be resolved rapidly by experts. Platforms initially supported by the eCosPro Developer's Kit are: * SuperH SH4-202 MicroDev platform * ColdFire Motorola M5272C3 ColdFire evaluation board * ARM Atmel AT91EB40, AT91EB40A, AT91EB42, AT91EB55 * PowerPC A&M Adder PPC850 board * IA32 i386 PC platform Support for the Linux Synthetic Target is also available on specific Linux distributions. Further platform support will be added on a regular basis - driven by customer demand. eCosCentric will continue to work with the eCos maintainers to develop and maintain the publically available version of eCos which may be downloaded at http://ecos.sourceware.org/ or purchased on CDROM at http://www.ecoscentric.com/ecos/order.shtml.
