Installing cosscompiler ?
by jan128 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5C3HF)
I am not sure this question belongs here.
I am in process of configuring my C++ IDE for cross-compiling.
I have a few concerns.
First - I have been using my IDE stock GCC compiler and not sure HOW to select one to work with Raspberry Pi.
I vaguely recall that "arm" part in crosscompiler name is important because it is hardware dependent.
So I "picked" this resource and not sure if it is correct.
It would be nice if somebody could dissect the command for me.
Explain what each part does.
( I could post the output if it helps )
Then I am not sure "where it went" - AKA how do I select the path for my IDE.
sudo apt-get install libc6-armel-cross libc6-dev-armel-cross binutils-arm-linux-gnueabi libncurses5-dev build-essential bison flex libssl-dev bc
Thanks
