The TCF is an Eclipse framework designed for simplifying communication between development tools and embedded devices. This extensible, vendor-agnostic framework allows you to use the TRACE32-ICD through the IDE to debug QNX Neutrino targets.
The TRACE32-ICD can be configured as a TCF agent. A TCF agent offers services to client tools by exposing commands and events. Through the TCF, the IDE can use the debug functionality of the TRACE32 software. Note that simultaneous usage of the TRACE32 UI and the IDE UI is also possible.
