## 3.6. ABI Compatibility

The Application Binary Interface (ABI) for the ARM Architecture is a collection of standards, published by ARM Ltd. and other organizations. The ABI makes it possible to combine tools from different vendors, including Sourcery CodeBench and ARM RealView®.

Sourcery CodeBench implements the ABI as described in these documents, which are available from the ARM Information Center:

- BSABI - ARM IHI 0036B (28 October 2009)
- BPABI - ARM IHI 0037B (28 October 2009)
- EHABI - ARM IHI 0038A (28 October 2009)
- CLIBABI - ARM IHI 0039B (4 November 2009)
- AADWARF - ARM IHI 0040A (28 October 2009)
- CPPABI - ARM IHI 0041C (5 October 2009)
- AAPCS - ARM IHI 0042D (16 October 2009)
- RTABI - ARM IHI 0043C (19 October 2009)
- AAELF - ARM IHI 0044D (28 October 2009)
- ABI Addenda - ARM IHI 0045C (4 November 2009)

Sourcery CodeBench currently produces DWARF version 2, rather than DWARF version 3 as specified in AADWARF.
