[cdt-dev] Qemu User-mode + Cross Compiler

[Rafael Peria de Sene <rpsene@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello guys,

    Our Eclipse-based product has a plugin which integrates Qemu 
user-mode. It allows a developer to run its cross-compiled applications 
without the necessity to run an emulator/simulator. Qemu user-mode runs 
as a process and leverage the host kernel and syscalls.

    Basically, once you have built your cross-compiled application you 
can select Run As > Qemu, set the options and your application will be 
executed.

    Here are a article about it: 
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-c-cpp-applications-linux-on-power/

    Today it is tailored for ppc64/ppc64le, but with few changes can be 
generic enough.

    What do you think about it be part of CDT ?
