The Synopsys MetaWare Development Toolkit builds upon a 25-year legacy of industry-leading compiler and debugger products. It is a complete solution that contains all the components needed to support the development, debugging and tuning of embedded applications for ARC and ARC-V processors. The tool chain supports the complete family of ARC-V processors, including the 32-bit ARC-V RMX embedded processors, the 32-bit ARC-V RHX real-time processors, the 64-bit ARC-V RPX host processors. The MetaWare Toolkit also supports ARC Classic Processors, from the high-speed ARC HS Family, the deeply embedded ARC EM Family, and the ARC VPX DSP Family, to the general-purpose ARC 600 Family and the ARC 700 Family for high-performance applications. The ARC MetaWare EV Development Toolkit is an enhanced version of the toolkit that adds support for the EV7x Processor family.
The ARC MetaWare C Compiler is ANSI-C compliant, and supports the relevant subset of the ISO extensions for embedded applications. The C++ compiler supports advanced language features like partial specialization of class templates, and comes with a Standard Template Library next to the standard C++ library. For embedded developers targeting their applications to the ARC processor architecture, the compilers deliver industry-leading code density while maximizing performance. Synopsys maintains and runs an extensive suite of internal compiler verification and validation tests, and runs C and C++ validation suites from Solid Sands, Plum Hall, Inc. and Perennial, Inc. prior to every product release.
The ARC MetaWare C/C++ Debugger fully supports the rich set of ARC configuration options and extensions. It comes with a graphical user interface, as well as a command-line interface, to which you can add your own plug-ins to implement new functionality. In its semantic inspection interface you can display your application data in a format most useful and meaningful to you, and its peripheral display interface can decode bits in memory mapped registers for custom displays. The debugger also offers extensive profiling capabilities to tune your application to the selected ARC configuration, or to experiment with multiple ARC configurations to reach the optimal result. Additionally, it comes with the ARC nSIM Instruction Set Simulator that supports the complete range of ARC processors.

The MetaWare Development Toolkit offers a complete product solution to effectively support the development, debugging and tuning of your embedded applications for the ARC processor
The ARC MetaWare Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is a modern developer-friendly solution that enables users to seamlessly integrate the creation, management and debugging of embedded applications in a single cockpit. The ARC MetaWare Compiler and Debugger are fully integrated in this industry-standard, open IDE, where users have the ability to incorporate additional plugins from third parties, or add extensions of their own design.
MetaWare for Safety
For developing safety-related software to meet ISO 26262, certified versions of the Metaware Development Toolkit and the MetaWare Developer Compiler are available. These products have been certified by SGS-T?V Saar GmbH as ASIL-D ready and they include a Safety Guide and Safety Manual for the using the MetaWare tools in such applications.
MetaWare Lite
A limited version of the MetaWare Development Toolkit is available free of charge from the link below. MetaWare Lite is a fully functioning version of the MetaWare Development Toolkit, but has a number of restrictions, including a code-size limit of 32 Kilobytes and no runtime library sources. It can be used to develop applications for Synopsys ARC-V RMX, RHX, RPX, and ARC EM and HS processor families. It is available for Microsoft Windows only.
