A popular IDE for Arm-based MCUs from various vendors to use for C++ embedded programming

Ary

Hi all,

As a C++ programmer I would like to start using it in the embedded world. For that I wish to be familiar with a popular IDE on which I can write projects for ARM-based MCUs, from different vendors, be it of ST or others, and get help when running across a problem. 

I've some titles in mind such as: IAR and Keil. What are your ideas, please?

Thanks.

    A key difference between "free" IDEs and the commercial ones is that the free ones tend to be built on general-purpose stuff - GCC, Eclipse, etc - whereas the commercial ones are generally built from the ground up specifically for embedded use.

    Of course, with a commercial IDE, you get professional support; with a "free" IDE, you have to rely on the community.
