AVR_ProgrammingTools

Some tools useful for C programming of AVR chips. Most of them are open source:

1. IDE's (Integrated development environments)

   • eclipse general purpose open source IDE, written in Java

   • eclipse-cdt plugin for C/C++ development with eclipse

2. Software Documentation

   • doxygen documentation system for C/C++ and other languages

   • Graphviz graphical tool, can be used as addon for doxygen, generates call and include graphs

   • eclox plugin to ease the use of doxygen from within eclipse

3. Software Analysis

   • cflow tool to create call graphs in text form, can be helpful to guess the maximal needed stack depth

   • splint statical code checker, can be used to increase the safety of C programs

4. Software Specification

   • Enterprise Architect UML Design Tool. Very powerful, commercial but cheap, no official support of C

I would NOT suggest eclipse for very small projects.
It's a very powerful tool but needs a lot of time to find out how to do the things you want it to do.

Programming Libraries

1. freertos small, open source real time kernel (RTOS) written in c

2. uIP and 1wIP small IP Stack implementations
