1.2. About ARM plug-ins

The workbench integrates the following ARM plug-ins:

RealView Compilation Tools

This plug-in enables you to use RealView Compilation Tools from within the workbench to build projects for ARM targets. It provides comprehensive configuration panels to modify the tool settings for projects and individual files.

ARM assembler editor

This plug-in provides an editor that presents ARM assembler files with customizable formatting of code that is easy to read. It also provides an auto-complete feature on labels and other navigational aids.

Properties editor

ELF content editor

This plug-in creates tabular forms and graphical views showing the contents of image files, object files and library files.
