Right now I'm compiling an Ada project for VxWorks target under Windows,
in GPS.
[ All this has little or nothing to do with the IDE. Practically any IDE
can cross compile. Common problems are with setting up GCC environment
to enable cross-compiling, binding and linking. And yes, GPS supports
remote debugging, well, if you have guts for using GDB, but that's
another story ]
