Simon, you may think I'm trying to be a smart ass but I'm not. Using Code Composer studio, and various other IDE's for various platforms does not mean you understand how to setup / use a GCC toolchain from the command line. Which is really what you need to know to understand to use these properly.
All I have seen you say so far is that you have java GDB ( not even remotely the same thing ) working, and that you've been programming in C / C++ since the 80's. Personally, I have been programming C / C++ since the early 90's, and never really truely used a GCC toolchain until I cut my teeth on it with the MSP430 launchpad. My point ? Just because you *may* know gcc, and g++ does not mean you understand the whole GCC toolchain. Again, there are books on the subject . . . *In eclipse, I have created a C Project and in the Properties under C/C++ > Build, Settings, I have the Cross Settings, Prefix set to:* > > >> >> >> >> *arm-linux-gnueabihf-Path set to:/home/simon/gcc-linaro-arm-lin* >> *ux-gnueabihf-4.8-2014.03_linux* >> >> >> >> >> >> >> */bin Cross GCC Compiler, Command set to gccCross GCC Linker, Command set >> to gccCross GCC Assemlber, Command set to asWhen I build the project I >> get:/bin/sh: arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: command not found HelloWorldBBB >> C/C++ Problem* >> > This is a pathing issue, eclipse does not know where to find the toolchain binaries. I dont use Eclipse personally but perhaps for each binary you need a proper fully qualified path to each binary? More information required.
