Subject: Automate Toolchain building process
Chaitanya said at the Mumbai TI conference that he has created a
script for creating a toolchain. I have found a crosstoolchain
compiling method from http://www.free-electrons.org the details of
which are given at http://free-electrons.com/docs/toolchains/

I request Chaitanya to share his script with us.

Currently I am using the free binaries provided by CodeSourcery but as
I was surfing through the Internet, I also came across the Linaro
toolchain and free-electrons project. I am new to ARM toolchain use as
well as development. The aim of this discussion is to list all the
available Open Source ARM toolchains available in source as well as
binary form made available through various organizations. I have
listed the ones that I know.

1. Codesourcery http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/release1293
2. Linaro https://launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/4.4
3. free-electrons http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/dokuwiki/projects/crosstool

I am creating a GUI interface based on QT platform for creating a
toolchain making program instead of a CLI based script. We at
OpenARMLab as stated in the objective should build this project as our
initial project to begin with. I will soon update the group with only
the GUI interface. You will have to help me with creating the actual
backend program as I am highly inexperienced with regards to that.

Yes. Free Electrons has really good material on Linux / ARM.

This is really interesting.

I has started working on an IDE for similar purpose.. Here is the
google group page
 * http://groups.google.com/group/armstrong-ide.
 * https://github.com/tuxdna/Armstrong-IDE

I began with using Gtkmm but soon found myself stuck with
using both Gtk-C and Gtkmm-C++ bindings for Gdl and GNotebook apis.
I now intend to redo the whole code in Qt,

Lets see how it comes up.

Hi,
Few months ago I tried compiling Qt for Arm - I got it working in embedded
mode i.e. with it's own display server, but I couldn't get it working with
X11(Some config's I missed perhaps).

Qt Website
*http://qt.nokia.com/*
Qt For Embedded Linux
*http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/embedded-linux-cpp*

The docs section is extensive and lists cross-compiling, configurations etc.
You can select your version of Qt and move forward to the details.
*http://doc.qt.nokia.com/* <http://doc.qt.nokia.com/>

This is a nice link to how to get Qt Embedded working, along with
configuration for Qt Creator:
*
http://www.qtforum.org/article/27787/tuto-how-to-install-qt-embedded-...
*
We get QtCreator IDE which is great for developing apps in Qt. And you can
use it to develop arm-Linux apps too.

Hope this helps.

Subject: Re: Automate Toolchain building process
The goals of both our projects are quite different. I think an IDE is
quite unnecessary when we already have Eclipse, Kdevelop, etc.. All we
need is an Eclipse Plugin to configure the eclipse to use arm-gcc
instead of normal gcc or a wiki which will tell users to configure
Eclipse according to their wishes. The aim here is create a QT based
GUI to create an ARM cross-build toolchain.

Please change the name of your project. I was confused by the other
ARMSTRONG=libzzub . Anyways, I think you all should join OpenARMLab
because it has more members and possibility of more support and stop
using the name armstrong IDE since it causes a lot of confusion. It
will be better if you merge armstrong IDE with OpenARMLab.

Please forgive me if I have unknowingly hurt your sensibilities.

To clear all the confusion between the various terms related with
Linux development on various platforms, I have created the following
google spreadsheet.

Please help me fill it and rectify the errors where necessary.

Does this spreadsheet have selective access, because Google Docs
doesn't allow me to view it?

I got following error:

Try this: Click on "Share" -> "Change" -> then you can select Anyone with

How about putting it up on the wiki?

Why are we making a spreadsheet.. This kind of comparison is already
there on wikipedia.org in much depth.

Also now since we have our own wiki we can put this info there. Also the
other advantage is that we can have the history and discussion on a
topic recorded there.
I guess we need to conduct a small session on how to create / edit a
wiki page. I see this as a major block in writing a wiki.
