AUTOSAR is a development partnership for standardisation of software architectures for the development of complex E/E systems. The software configuration process specified by AUTOSAR involves the handling of large amounts of data describing the E/E system. An efficient application of the process requires good and continuous tool support. In this paper we propose an approach for AUTOSAR tooling, which is based on the technology and, more important, on the idea of Eclipse. Eclipse is one of the most successful open source projects of the last years with a strong influence on the industry. It provides an open development platform that can easily be extended. On top of Eclipse, the approach provides an open tool basis, which can be extended by special, free or commercial plug-ins. Our AUTOSAR tooling approach is oriented towards the ideas behind Eclipse and focuses on reusing the success factors for a tool approach within the AUTOSAR community.
