The origin of TI ARM compiler

Hi guys,

It might appear as a dumb question, but is the TI ARM compiler the same product as the compiler by the ARM company, the one that ships with Keil or DS-5? I wouldn't think that it is, however the version numbers are very similar. For example Keil currently ships with ARM compiler 5.0.3 while CCS ships with TI ARM compiler 5.0.4. Is this just a coincidence?

Thanks and best regards,

Marko

    No.  It completely separate from all those compilers.  Particularly, the TI ARM compiler is not based on GCC.  Version number similarity is just a coincidence.

    Thanks and regards,
