Jared, Thanks for your reply. That sounds very promising. I would be using Eclipse mainly for editing, compiling and debugging. Other things like UML and GUI programming are not involved. We will be using Eclipse, or some other tool, to develop firmware for an Atmel microcontroller. The language tools come from Atmel. The debugger runs via a BDM link, which is similar to JTag. I will download the sample tools this week at work.

I've used eclipse a lot, as well as products based on it. Things like code editing, stepping through code in a debugger, and viewing variables work fine. Other visual things like GUI designers and UML diagrams don't work with Jaws. What system are you guys looking at using?
