If you'd like a product that includes Eclipse and Sourcery G++, you
might want to consider our commercial Sourcery G++ products.

If this is for a bare-metal system, that's probably because shared
libraries are not really supported in the GNU toolchain for bare-metal
systems.  There is tremendous variation between RTOS systems in terms of
how they handle shared libraries.  If, on the other hand, your target is
a GNU/Linux system, this is probably because the packagers did not not
set up Eclipse so as to make that possible.  It is possible with our
commercial products.
