Forum readers interested in using Eclipse for ARM cross-development may find the 70 page tutorial "TiniARM Development with Eclipse" very helpful. The tutorial explains in great detail how to configure Eclipse, the CDT plugins, Cygwin and GNUARM compiler suites to create a free and sophisticated Integrated Development Environment. While the tutorial is specifically directed towards the New Micros TiniARM development kit ($95 US), users of other ARM chips may still find it useful. New Micros Inc. is graciously hosting the tutorial and you may access it at: http://www.newmicros.com/download/appnotes/arm/TiniARM_Dev_Eclipse.pdf Take a look! |

WOW! you guys did a great job. When do you think there will be a tutorial explaining how to use JTAG to step through code and add break points?

What am I missing ? I installed Cyqwin, Eclipse and GNUArm as per instruction. With a sample project (as per instruction), when I try to project->build all I have: Error launching builder (make all ) (Exec error:Launching failed) There is no make utility. My uderstanding was there should be a make.exe utility under GnuArm\utils\ or smth. but there is none. Can someone explain how the make works and/or why it doesn't work for me? Jan |

You should check the 'make' development package when installing Cygwin. The Cygwin\bin directory must be in your path.

BTW, would the same 'make' (under Cygwin) work for other GNU packages like MSP430, AVR and Hitachi, as some of them come with make utility of it's own. I always had a problem with coexistence of GNU tools for different micros (MSP430 and H8S). Jan |

Would the same 'make' be OK with other GNU packages (MSP430 and Hitachi) ? I always had a problem with a coexistance of GNU tools for different micros. Jan |

However, if you are using make for a Cygwin environment, you should be aware of the directory path translations Cygwin does with the filesystem (eg /cygdrive/{drive}, /usr/..., mounts, etc.) Regards. -- PabloBleyerKocik /"Why don't we rewrite it all in assembly pbleyer2004 / language for processor Mega666?" @embedded.cl / - The linux-kernel mailing list FAQ |

I ran into that problem when Eclipse instead of GNU-make found the make utility that came with Borland C++ Builder. That one didn't work with my makefile and produced an error. If you can't change the order of entries in the PATH variable (e.g. because then the other tools will not be able to find their 'make') you could create a symbolic link like "gnu-make" and tell Eclipse to use that name to call 'make'.

Could always do the dodgy old trick of putting a make.bat in the project directory pointing to the make and other utils you want to use. Sometimes its the only way to get around things, especially if you have a few different versions of gcc and cygwin installed and multiple make versions. eg "normal cygwin" mingw + msys gnuarm winavr microchip C30 (gcc based) Macraigor Cygwin keil gcc for blackfin etc Alex |
