What compilers have the best drivers pre-built?

    You'll get more sense in any replies if you tell us the target processor (and OS), the language(s) you wish to compile and the kind of drivers you are interested in. MK

    Almost every platform today has built-in display examples. I would check out arduino and PSoC Creator.

    I think your best bet would be to look at ST's ARM based processors. The higher end ones have hardware display drivers and accelerators and they offer lots of examples, code building tools and full graphics…

    Compilers do not have Drivers built into them. A compiler is just a tool to generate code.  You you have to look at the specific processor or peripheral (Display) vendor to see if they provide the driver libraries you are looking for and then see what compiler they support.  More than likely you will find support for the GCC compiler or Clang but it will vendor specific.

    Your best bet would be to look at AVR/Microchip, STM or TI and maybe Renesas.  My preference would be TI.
