Hi
Is FPC 2.2.2 really the latest native release for ARM processors?
I guess it can build the more recent versions. (?)
There is an arm release for 2.6.0rc1, but it was built using old
binutils (last time I checked, at least):
ftp://freepascal.stack.nl/pub/fpc/beta/2.6.0-rc1/arm-linux/
So you'll probably have to build it yourself. It does build fine
natively on Ubuntu for arm, if you have a bootstrap compiler that works.
The one inside
ftp://freepascal.stack.nl/pub/fpc/beta/2.6.0-rc1/bootstrap/ does not
work for me (probably old binutils issue). Let me know if you'd like my
bootstrap binary.
Those small machines are amazing. 1.2 GHz CPU and half a GB memory was a
decent desktop machine just few years ago, but those machines consumed
power much more.
I have a tegra 2 laptop (dual core) and it's pretty usable. Not exactly
fast, but lazarus runs with the odd hiccup here and there.
Has anyone got experience of editing source in a PC (with Lazarus) and
then transferring the source through a serial port to an embedded device
to be compiled. Are there any tools to make it easier?
Maybe people only use cross-compilers and move binaries, I don't know.
Install your favourite scm client on the device, then just pull the
source over the network? Alternatively transfer the source with scp.
