(openPR) - Latest Wind River Linux Platforms come with advanced cross-build system and 64-bit application support

Wind River announced the availability of the next generation of Wind River Linux. This release of Wind River Linux will be based on the 2.6.21 Linux kernel. Wind River will provide users with 64-bit application support, including tools for both kernel and user space debugging across all supported architectures. Wind River Linux will include an advanced cross-build system that incorporates a structured framework for managing device software components as independent “layers.” These layers act as building blocks for developers to manage and organize Linux packages; source code or binaries; metadata or configuration files; test suites, or even extra files. The new release also provides support for additional Board Support Packages (BSP). A new release of Wind River Real-Time Core for Linux will also be available. It will include support for numerous BSPs, including 64-bit targets across all architectures. The next generation of Wind River Linux and Wind River Real-Time Core for Linux is expected to be available in December 2007.
