Wind River Workbench is a Windows program package that gives you access to developer tools for the Wind River platforms. It encompasses the components necessary for configuring the operating system, conducting software analysis and optimization, as well as debugging.

Main advantages

The utility serves as an IDE intended for creating device programs that run on embedded Wind River Linux or VxWorks systems. It is optimized for projects of varying scales. The toolset offers advanced source code analysis capabilities, concurrent management of numerous targets, and a debugger.

It is worth noting that with this software, your project does not need to be fully linked. You can download partially completed modules to perform incremental testing. It is possible to use the shell and debugger to invoke and test either individual application routines or entire tasks.

Inspection and debugging

The program directly loads the relocatable object modules and keeps an exhaustive symbol table on the host for the target. You have the capability to inspect variables, enact routines, set up tasks, trace subroutine calls, and so on.

The debugger component offers the flexibility to analyze apps within the original source code. From the graphical interface you can configure breakpoints, explore data structures, etc. To debug projects inside Visual Studio, you may try a special plugin called dotCover.
