Negative Positive
Title: Compiler-Specific
Review: Though the author's heart is surely in the right place, this book suffers from an over-simplification of the problem. Writing embedded software is not easy. A big part of the complexity is that every development environment (specific combination of cross compiler, debugging tools, target processor, etc.) is unique. By focusing the content of this book only on the cross compiler produced by his employer (ByteCraft), any generality is lost. The result is a book that's good as a user's manual for those using the ByteCraft compiler but not so good for others.
Is the review positive or negative?
