hi all,

I think the D community should make more effort to make Dlang more easier to use on embedded Linux(mostly are arm and mips, powerpc).

currently, LDC seems to be more complete, but we can only see a hundred words on the wiki about the cross-compiling for arm.

I'm working in a company now for IOT market. We have a lot of things like embedded linux systems: has a basic linux kernel, uclibc/eglibc system, built using buildroot or yocto.

for such a device, we need to write lost of code for dealing networking, web interface, database storage and sometimes data algorithm.

And, For most of the devices on the market, like routers, fiber-port routers, ethernet switches, and most of the termination system made by Cisco, Broadcom, Huawei and others running at least millions of lines of C code on the embedded linux system.

So, We have very big chance for spreading to these market. D is really syntax-clean and provides more productive.

We need tutorial for cross-compiling a whole d project for the ARM, MIPS linux systems, and we need the cross-compile toolchain ready to download.

so, any ideas?
