Micro-Robotics has released an integrated development environment designed for the company's VM-1 embedded controller and Venom-SC object-oriented language.
Micro-Robotics, the Cambridge, UK-based manufacturer of embedded control solutions and components, celebrates its 20th anniversary by releasing VenomIDE, an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) designed for the company's VM-1 embedded controller and Venom-SC object-oriented language.
One of the strengths of the VM-1 controllers has always been that the user programs in real time on the target hardware using tools readily available on any PC such as a text editor and a terminal emulator.
With this new integrated editor and terminal package users can still program the VM-1 on any PC using a terminal emulator but many additional useful features are now available.
These include: easy, secure, optimised download of source files with full project management utilities, error location achieved by double-clicking on 'error report' in the terminal that takes the user back to the source line and syntax highlighting with each element of the Venom-SC language being highlighted in a different style.
In addition, context-sensitive help is also now available on the Venom-SC language.
