I hve following doubts regarding cross-compiling
1. if cross toolchain build wth differnet library other than the one using presently on host, will it b matter.
2. if toolchain build for 32-bit nd if i'm running it on 64-bit will it b matter.
I have synology nas box DS710+ that has intel atom processor inside. i've installed ubuntu under virtual box, downloaded needed toolchain for x86 processors, and decided to cross-compile openvpn.
I 've started from compiling lzo library, but first question that appeared in my head - how i have to move all compiled binaries to my synology?
1. configure - okay
2. make - okay
3. make install - this is not necessary?
Will --prefix parameter helps me? or do i have to use chroot? cause there is a plenty amount of files that i need to move to my synology.
We have a device here at work running an Arm processor, I have a cross-compiler for the device, it was distributed to our company with the linux distribution we are using on the device (montavista linux). I would love to be able to cross compile some software for this device, however, I really suck at this kind of thing.
Whenever I try to cross compile software, I usually get an error like "unrecognized host platform" (I'm paraphrasing obviously), but the toolchain is not that much different from a generic Arm toolchain, just with some extra libraries installed and stuff. I tried using other arm toolchains, but those are a crapshoot, they compile fine, but they don't always run correctly on the device (for instance, busybox).
The reason I get the unrecognized platform error is because the toolchain has a weird prefix on it (arm_v5t_le-) which the configure script can't handle, but if it would just try to cross compile it like it does with other arm targets, it would work fine. How do I make it work?
I'm trying to cross compile the GNU make for Alpha Architecture on my i686 PC and the GNU make i compiled would be placed in my virtual hard disk which is a Alpha based linux simulated system. My question is now , I'm able to cross compile the GNU make on my i686 real PC machine , but when i let the make program run in my virtual machine , it pops out the error ..
make: /lib/libc.so.6.1: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by make)
After that, I try another alternative , and I read through the file "INSTALL" on the GNU make directory that I downloaded from the internet . In this case , I downloaded make-3.81. On the sub section "Compiling For Multiple Architectures" It says that
"You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their own directory. To do this, you must use a version of `make' that supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'. `cd' to the
directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run the `configure' script.`configure' automatically checks for the
source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'. If you have to use a `make' that does not support the `VPATH'
variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a time in the source code directory. After you have installed the
package for one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring for another architecture." And I do not understand the line "by placing the object files for each architecture in their own directory" . What object files that I should put ?
We want to use GCC for cross compiling C source code for POWERPC MPC8260 target. How do we build cross compiler in windows?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI developed a test program(my first under linux) some thing like g++ -I$(BOOST_INCLUDE) -L$(BOOST_LIBS) threading.cpp -lpthread -lboostThread -lOtherLib -o threadingTest.out...This thing works in GCC4.5, but to compile it under windows visual studio 2008, do I have to create a new project file and then include all libs?
In short, is there any IDE or utility, where I just compile it either on linux or windows without going and modifying project options again and again ?
I wonder if there is an easy way to accomplish the following: I made a tool and part of it needs to be compiled. It would be easy if I can automate compilation for multiple platforms (x86 / x86_64 / RHEL / SLES / Ubuntu). Is there a way to do this automated on a single host? Or should I set up an os for each distro? Also is there a way to generate RPM and deb files also on the same host without having to edit the meta files each time a version changes?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am trying to cross compile php for "arm" target using "arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi" tool chain. Apache compilation was successful after using a few ac_cv configuration options(and a few others to get rid of compile errors). But was unable to compile php for the target, as the 'apxs' file used was not executable in the build machine.
I tried creating an apxs file for the build machine architecture(intel 686), and using it. It was able to compile then, but still php page is not getting displayed on the web server. (Have done the procedures like, loading the libphp5 module on httpd conffile and all)
I am trying to cross-compile my Qt application for armhf on Jessie, so what I did was install qt5-default:armhf, but when I tried running qmake I found out that it contains also an armhf version of qmake so I was not able to run it.Then I installed the amd64 version to have at least a runnable version of qmake, but it was only to find out that qmake contains only hardcoded paths, so I could not use it for the armhf libraries, well I could but I had to run qmake (amd64 version) and afterwards open the makefile and change all paths from amd64 to armhf.
But as this is not so convenient I was wondering if there is a normal way to do this, I know you can compile the source yourself but I had quite a lot of problems with dependencies there. Is it possible with the standard repository binaries or should I just go back to compiling the source myself? Maybe I can compile only the building tools without building all the libraries I already got from the repository.

I'm trying to build some boot and kernel images for my WD Mybook world edition, which uses an arm processor on my x86_64 host box. Ultimately i'd like to install slackarm. Lilo doesn't work on arm so you have to compile your own kernel and have the bootloader statically linked to kernel inorder to boot the OS. So i'm using my slackware install to cross compile the boot loaders (u-boot) and kernel image (uImage).
I've successfully compiled the buildroot environment which has generated the arm-linux-* binaries, eg, gcc 3.4.2 for arm.
Code:
These are in a build folder (shortened in text below), which i add to my PATH
Code:
I then move to the directory where i want to build the stage1 boot loader, which is supplied in the GPL code from WD.
Code:
However the build fails with a segfault, which looks to be caused by the incorrect libraries and compiler being used:
Code:
It seems to be using my x86_64 libs and gcc 4.4.4 which is the host compiler not the target.
I've tried setting ARCH=arm but got the same results.
Do i need to export some additional variables or unset some to prevent the host files being used instead of the targets?
I need a cross compiler for C/C++.
Unfortunately, I can't find the GCC cross compiler in the repositories.
There is only a package with the binutils: cross-ppc-binutils

I entered: gcc raw.c -m32 -g -static -o raw

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been installing gentoo on my desktop for the past few weeks. (Not a whole lot of time to get to it) and I must say that I wished I had made the move a whole lot earlier. Anyway, my next canididate for gentoo would be my ibook g3 which has a slow processor. I have heard that for these systems cross compiling is a lot better of an option than compiling on the system itself. I have read the cross-compiling guide and am left a bit confused. Could I use my thumbdrive to transfer compiled binaries from my desktop to my laptop and install the packages that way? Also, what would I do when updates come out for my laptop. Is there any way of monitoring the package statuses?

If i set up the toolchain on a fedora 13 machine with the exact same procedure, the cross compilation works fine. I can't figure out how this can be fixed. I am currently considering downgrading to fedora 13 due to this.
I'm a newbie when it comes to embedded linux / cross compiling. Never had to have anything to do with it b4 I bought my NAS. The Nas only has a 500MHZ ARM9 so compiling anything is painfully slow. Also only has 128MB ram. I managed to cross compile the kernel but am not sure how would you cross compile something like HPLIP for example.
