Re: Anyone install windriver on linux yet?
The realtime module implements the client protocol, the cross compiler, and integrates all of the configuration stuff for discovering the chassis, downloading, etc.
It isn't that these things can't be done with linux. They certainly can. Years ago there was an RT version for Mac OSX. But demand for the Mac and also for linux versions of RT seem to be low. With a product this complex, even testing on an OS adds up to significant time. So if there isn't apparent demand, it gets trimmed. Many of the developers at NI are linux fans and it isn't personal, it just comes down to supplying products that the majority of engineers need.
