I'm a newbie, but I have successfully built the protocol buffers sources (version 3.1.0) on Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64 and installed, as per https://github.com/google/protobuf/blob/master/src/README.md I am now attempting to cross-compile to an ARM target, using the cross-compiling info from the README above and the following as references: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/protobuf/ZWuTzg-N0E0 After running 'make clean' and re-configuring to use the arm-linux-gnueabihf compilers and the previously installed x64 protoc, I encounter a error that indicates it is attempting to use the js_embed binary built for ARM in the process. Relevant info as follows:

builds for ARM. Any help or direction is appreciated. Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
