[maemo-developers] What kind of tools and utilities you want in ARM

2007-02-06 Thread mika.k.leppinen

Hi,

We are currently thinking what kind of tools and utilities would be the
most useful 
for ARM based Maemo developers. Idea is that we would host some basic
tools and 
utilities from common repository and hopefully when new platform version
comes 
these tools work ASAP and fun can start immediately. So please tell what
kind
of tools you are using or wishing and why ?

Nice idea. Thanks.

cvs client: I sync a lot of data in text form with CVS. Not sure if subversion 
would be an alternative...both?
openvpn: useful for very limited network connections
zile: emacs style text editor for remote (i.e. ssh in) editing

Thanks,
Rainer

Mika,

how about the following utilities which are already quite standard for 
most Linux distributions:


1. Wireshark (aka Ethereal) running on the OS, at least with the 
capability to gather packet/frame streams so that they can be later 
analyzed on a PC with a richer (i.e. Bigger) screen size. I have found 
this tool to be indespensible when testing/debugging applications that 
use the TCP/IP stack. In fact right now I could use it because I have a 
situation where an ARP request that should be originating from the N800 
is getting swallowed somewhere.


   http://www.wireshark.org/

2. Samba Server. Related to the above, the ability to easily pull and 
push files from a CIFS/SMB compatible PC (e.g. Windows XP, etc.) would 
be very useful. I know that this can also achieved using the USB 
interface of the N800 but It would be great to be able to use 802.11 + 
the TCP/IP stack to do this without wires.

3. Webmin. So the N800 can be modified/managed remotely via a www browser:

All three are not development tools, but applications. You might want to
port them, but I doubt that they are absolutely necessairy for development.

I see your need for a network sniffer, though I guess that one should be
easily ported to Maemo.

 2. Samba Server. Related to the above, the ability to easily pull and
 push files from a CIFS/SMB compatible PC (e.g. Windows XP, etc.) would
 be very useful.

I use scp. You might want to try sshfs based on FUSE if you are running
a Linux desktop; with it, you can mount the device's filesystem right
into your desktop's filesystem.
