newbie question - Deepak Kashyap - Nov 22 22:30:00 2005
Hello fellow members,
This is my first post.I am new to lpc and starting off with lpc2124.
I want to know what are the Free ( gnu) tools available for LPC2124 for win deelopment
preferably.
Also I have worked on RTos' s before can freeRTos be ported to any custom hardware
design?
Thank you
Deepak

www.gnuarm.org has prebuilt gnu toolchains. I would recommend gcc 3.4.3 or so.
I would strongly recommend using cygwin as a gnu environment under Windows
rather than vanilla windows. cygwin gives proper gnu make etc.

Yes. AFAIK there are already ports of FreeRTOS to gcc for various ARM micro
variants.

I use the gnuarm tools along with UnxUtils
(http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/) rather than the cygwin make.

UnxUtils looks interesting as a Cygwin alternative. I'll give it a try. From
what I read it supports sed etc too which are typically quite important in
more complex makefiles.
