RE: [lpc2000] Looking to buy compiler

2005-11-06 by Dan Beadle

I am with you about GNU.  Cheap, but my time is worth a lot.  IAR and
Keil are Chevy vs Ford.

I use Keil and like it a lot.  What few problems with the compiler I've
found had been fixed with in several days.  The support is great.

There are going to be a lot of people suggesting GNU and while I sure it
a
powerful development tool I can't stand to use it.  I'm a hardware
engineer
that programs and I don't want to have to be a frigg'n GNU expert just
to
use a compiler.  I compare buying a compiler to buying a car;  buy
Keil/Iar/... and you get a fully assembled car, use GNU and you get a
box
full of unlabeled parts, crappy documentation, no support, and you put
your
own car together out of these parts...

If you want a great tool that is well supported grab Keil or one of the
other commercial compiler packages.
