binary GNU toolchain for both Windows and Linux?

Greetings,

Does anyone have a recomendation for a binary toolchain for both Windows and Intel x86 Linux?

So far, all I have found is CodeSourcery. It’s a nice toolchain, but it doesn’t seem to compile many of the nice examples that may be found on the web.

If it weren’t for needing Linux sometimes, I’d go with GNUARM or YAGARTO.

My targets are the lpc2138 and 2378. I have the Olimex parallel port, and, soon, the usb jtag gizmo, purchased from Sparkfun.

I don’t mind continuing to dig into this on my own, but I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask here.

I have the experience necessary to build my own tools from source, but surely there are enough folks doing a great job of that already. I just need to find them.

Thank you,

GNUARM has a Linux toolchain (though only gcc 3.4 for 32-bit x86 it seems)

Greetings,

Thanks for your reply.

I was trying to be very careful when I was composing my request, but somehow I still managed to mess it up…

Let me try again. I was looking for a non-Cygwin solution.

I love the examples in WINARM, but many of them do not compile with the Linux toolchains that I have tried so far – CodeSourcery and GNUARM.

Thanks again!

bit confused - codesourcery, winarm and gnuarm are all based on various versions of gcc.

If an example builds under winarm then there is no reason why it will not build under the others.

Personally i build my own toolchains.

But if i were to choose i would go for codesourcery as they are running a more recent codebase than mainline gcc.

If you want toolchain and ide then look at Rowley - www.rowley.co.uk
