IAR Systems Integrates Subversion

By DE Editors

IAR Systems has announced that the Subversion version control system has been integrated in IAR Embedded Workbench. The integration allows users to perform Subversion commands from within the IAR Embedded Workbench IDE, and to see the current status of project files and folders. Integration of version control systems into the IDE helps simplify the development process for sharing files in a project and for keeping track of source code versions.

“We have seen an increasing number of requests from our customers to integrate Subversion in IAR Embedded Workbench, and we have responded to this,” says Mats Ullstrom, product director IAR Systems. “Ease-of-use is one of our design principles for IAR Embedded Workbench. Integrating Subversion helps our users with versions control just where they need it.”

IAR Embedded Workbench is a set of C and C++ tools for building and debugging embedded system software for embedded systems. It provides an integrated development environment including a project manager, editor, build tools and debugger. In a continuous workflow, source files and projects can be created, built and debugged on hardware or in a simulator.

The Subversion integration is currently available in IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM version 6.20, and more targets will follow as new versions are released.
