I think it's great that FIRST has expanded our variety of IDEs.. I read on the 2009 PDF that Windriver is basically Eclipse.. Can somebody please explain? Is Windriver some comerical spinoff of a perfectly good Open Source project? Or is it just a set of plugins for the standard Eclipse IDE?

Q) What IDE(s) will be available for use with the new controller/programming language?
A) Both WindRiver Workbench (Eclipse) for C/C++ and LabVIEW.

Either way, Eclipse is a great program (widely used in the industry).. Labview also shows promise as a learning tool, though I am a big fan of starting newbies off with writing real C code..
On another note, does anyone have any idea as to what libraries will be onboard the cRIO? Also, what libraries will FIRST or WPI be supplying? I assume they will write some of the very low level (pwm generation/timer interface) for us.. If you know, do tell!
The most exciting thing for me.. Floating points and Objects!!! Woohoo!!
