Hi :)
I don't know if it will help, but back in 2007, I started a website:
http://fpc4gp2x.eonclash.com/
which allows one to make programs for an arm-linux handheld, the gp2x.
It has a freepascal cross-compiler that works under Windows 32, and
generates arm-linux binaries :)
I know it is over 2 years old now, but perhaps it may still help?
cheers,
Paul

Subject: [Lazarus] Cross Compile for arm-linux
Hi all,
I'm a newbie about cross compiling, but I need to develop some
applications for arm-linux architecture. There are many days that I
search on web tutorials, guide and simple sparse bit of knowledge
about how to to... but no success at now.
All references to tutorials I found are very old and partially not
working.
So I hope that you can help me to write a generic step by step
tutorial, starting from "generic" sources; I mean what to download,
what to write in terminal, etc...
What I believe to know is that:
1) cross compiling for arm-linux is simplest from Linux X86
2) I need binutils ( I downloaded latest one:
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/binutils/binutils-2.20.tar.gz )
3) I need sources of fpc and lazarus. I downloaded:
- latest official fpc: fpcbuild-2.2.4.zip
- Lazarus snapshots: e.g. today's
lazarus-0.9.29-22952-20091204-src.tar.bz2
Now knowledge is even more darkness... I tried to install binutils:
cd ~/temp/buinutils
./configure
make
sudo make install
My experience with linux is not very deep, so I don't know if it is
installed right.
After this, do I need to compile fpc and than lazarus? How?
I became crazy... I think I will never develop for arm-linux without
your step by step help...
Thank you very much in advance!
