Code Composer Studio vs. MULTI IDE vs. Python vs. Sourcery CodeBench Comparison Chart

After more than three decades of customer use and continuous enhancement, the MULTI Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is unmatched in the embedded software industry. Developers know they can rely on MULTI to help them produce high-quality code and get their devices to market faster. Whether pinpointing a hard-to-find bug, resolving a memory leak, or maximizing system performance, MULTI consistently works. Every feature of our revolutionary Debugger is designed to quickly solve problems that stump traditional tools. It often takes weeks or months to track down problems like inter-task corruptions, missed real-time requirements, and external hardware events. Green Hills' TimeMachine tool suite helps you solve the same problems in hours or even minutes. The TimeMachine tool suite automatically captures program execution data, combining the MULTI Debugger interface with innovative replay debugging capabilities.

Sourcery CodeBench delivers a powerful toolset that helps embedded software engineers to efficiently develop and optimize software for a variety of targets and various domains including Automotive, Connectivity, Graphics, and Video applications. Sourcery CodeBench goes beyond just the compiler to provide developers with powerful open source, embedded C/C++ development tools to build, debug, analyze and optimize embedded software in complex heterogeneous architectures including Arm, IA32, MIPS and Power Architectures. Eclipse based IDE enabling workspace customization and project management. Enhanced source code editor with syntax highlighting. Custom board support through Board Builder, a tool for automatically generating linker scripts, debug configuration files, and start-up code based on a board’s memory map.
