CodeWarrior

The computer program CodeWarrior is an integrated development environment ( IDE ) from Freescale, a former subsidiary of Motorola. Original CodeWarrior was developed by Metrowerks, but this was bought in 1999 by Motorola or Freescale. With CodeWarrior can be software for many applications from embedded system build up to the desktop application.

The CodeWarrior provides the opportunity to work with one and the same development environment in four different programming languages ​​( Java, C, C and Pascal ) to write programs. These can then be for 11 different platforms (Windows 95 / NT, Mac OS, Mac OS X, BeOS, PlayStation, Palm Pilot, and others) to compile. CodeWarrior is available for the operating systems MacOS, BeOS and Windows 95/NT.

The wide range of platforms bought one, however, with a lack of specialization: To the CodeWarrior does not own a part of the program for the creation of user interfaces ( GUI builder ) since the GUIs of the platforms are all different. The CodeWarrior was also a popular development tool for Macintosh applications. Since CodeWarrior can not produce Intel - Macintosh applications, developers must henceforth rely on alternatives such as Xcode.
