There is nothing wrong with using windows for firmware development. Come on now. See my previous posting. There's nothing "wrong" with using scissors to cut your lawn, but I prefer a lawnmower. I've seen a lot of firmware developers who are so rediculously inefficient because they get hung up on being so religious about linux... If they're inefficient, it's not because of Linux. I'm not religious about it, I'm practical. Linux just works. Windoze gets in your face, and then craps on you. Wheather you use SDCC or Keil, it's just a tool. Learn the 8051 architecture and good coding techniques. Precisely. Tools can get in the way of a newbie learning good coding techniques. A powerful debugger, for example, teaches students to be lazy in their coding--they don't think out the problem before writing crap code that they try to fix using the debugger. I've seen it way too many times. The best debugger is the one between your ears. Write good code the first time and most bugs can be spotting just by inspecting the code. |
