Re: Embedded Systems Python?
Guys, Thanks, that was all information that I wanted to hear. I have a Cirrus Logic Linux port for the ARM9. I've no idea what the code base is, I've not figured that out yet. I should just need to re- compile on the platform. thanks, DLC -- * Dennis Clark [EMAIL PROTECTED]www.techtoystoday.com * * Programming and Customizing the OOPic Microcontroller Mcgraw-Hill 2003 * -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Embedded Systems Python?
Hi all, I've looked through the threads about embedded Python that are a year and a half old, and I thought that I'd ask this question now to see if anything has changed. Has anyone, or is anyone working with Python in an embedded Linux environment? Mine is NO where near as constrained as a cell phone since I've got plenty of memory to work with, I'm just running a Linux 2.4 kernel on an ARM9 platform. Are there success stories for Python on embedded Linux systems today? The embedded Java JVM's seem to all be propriatary and have quite high license fees (don't mention Kaffe, it seems pretty fragile to me.) I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to Python, is there anyone with experience compiling it on Linux platforms that can offer me pointers to try this out myself? thanks, DLC -- * Dennis Clark [EMAIL PROTECTED]www.techtoystoday.com * * Programming and Customizing the OOPic Microcontroller Mcgraw-Hill 2003 * -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Embedded Systems Python?
I developed for my former employee a thin client whose primary purpose was AS400 connectivity. This required a fairly complex interactive gui configuration which I wrote in Python. This system could also be configed by a remote manager. Wrote that also in python using UDP sockets. The hardware was 64Mb memory and 64Mb compact flash. OS wa 2.4.20 linux from Debian I did a lot of cleanup removing unneeded modules but other than that, standard Python 2.3.4 worked great.

This really shouldn't be a problem - especially given python can be made to run on mobile phones (Nokia Series 60). We've found using python on Series 60 phones to be quite useful, so if you're using a linux box, you're presumably got more memory/CPU available than there, so I doubt you'll see major problems.

Seatch for cross-compiling python patches. I'm working on an XScale255 platform with python2.2 and soon 2.3 - no trouble there. Diez -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
