pimmel 5 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I didn't see any posts on whether or not cygwin was a usable environment. I figured I would give it the college effort and see if I could build up a toolchain that allows me to compile and flash from within my editor of choice (Vim). The basic groundwork is laid out, and I have to say that I really didn't have to do any original work as it was basically all adapted from linux tutorials. If anyone is interested, I wrote up my experience at http://underwaterwhistler.blogspot.com/2013/01/getting-started-with-stellaris-launchpad.html Xtagon, Nuaskessekiny, bluehash and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pimmel 5 Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 Okay, part two of working within cygwin. I now have a post on building up and using a debugging environment with OpenOCD and gdb. If anyone is interested, the write-up can be found at http://underwaterwhistler.blogspot.com/2013/02/stellaris-cygwin-and-openocd-for.html. Again, this is mostly work of others, based heavily off of support from Spen and Mauro. Enjoy! zborgerd and bluehash 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doragasu 0 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I'm using GNU tools for Stellaris development, but I don't use Windows. Anyway, it's really nice you took the effort to write a Windows+Cygwin tutorial. I'm sure some devvers will find it useful! Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zborgerd 62 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 This is a good tutorial. Cygwin is a good option for some people on Windows. Another option would be to just use a VM like Virtualbox for Ubuntu 12.4 or 12.10, though I don't know how well it would work with the USB device. Alternately, you could probably use the precompiled Windows binaries from here: https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded I've tried the precompiled Linux version and they seem to be just as suitable as when I've built them with summon-arm.
