Hello,
I 've a module with a Cortex-M4 Vybrid VF61 processor and an installed linux.
The installed linux does not provide gcc and gdb for native compiling and debugging.
Please, can anybody tell me, where I can download a prebuilt gcc and a prebuilt gdb for native compiling and debugging ?
Best regards
How you connect to your Cortex-M platform to your PC and how you copy / flash your program binaries to your Cortex-M development board?
Can you share which Coretx-M4 development board you are using ?
I assume you are using Visual Studio Code for Ubuntu ?
Hello Przemek,
My Cortex-M platform is connected to PC via Ethernet.
Visual Studio copies the source files of my project to the Cortex-M and initiates on target compiling and linking.
With PuTTY I can enter the directory on the target, and can start the application. That works.
If I try to start debugging with Visual Studio it denies acces with the message:
"gdb" could not be startet. It doesn't exist and must be installed.
And therfore I need a gdb for installing on the Cortex-M (VF61).
My Cortex-M4 developement board is "Toradex Colibri Evaluation Board Rev. 3.2.".
Don't know if it has a meaning to you.
If I need a none-GUI application for a Ubuntu PC, then I use Visual Studio in the same way, that works fine, because gcc and gdb exist on the Ubuntu-PC. But that is another matter. That has nothing to do with Cortex-M.
Thanks and best regards :-)
