yes, most of the test case should be properly cross compiled if your setup all env vars properly. E.g. CC, CHOST, CBUILD and CTARGET.
See configure method on client/common_lib/utils.py. On Wed, Aug 25, 2010 at 7:16 AM, Ajeet Yadav <[email protected]>wrote: > Thanks Lucas. > > There are two things: > 1.

Proper setup ARM toolchain env vars. 2. add enable_server_prebuild=True to the AUTOSERV section of your global_config.ini 3.run server/autoserv as usual. The client tests should be precompiled at server side before packaged and send to the client hardware. Please let me know how you go through this, it would be very interest to hear some one used it out side of our build env. Thanks.
