Flex is a genuine real-time software debugger designed specifically for embedded system development. Operating independently of debugging hardware, target processor and code generation tools, flex provides a universal front-end to the complete range of FlexTools offered by Noral. Flex is therefore available as a front-end debugger for in-circuit emulators, background debug mode hardware and even simulators. 

Flex loads all the industry standard debug file formats so it is compatible with all the popular compulers and linkers. You can therefore develop your application using any of your preferred C/C++ code generating tools.

Flex includes an integrated 'C' macro language for creating custom test and development scripts. So it is very easy to create test suites, automate repretitive tests and customise just about any part of your debugging environment.
