GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain

Latest Version of Pre-compiled GCC for Arm

Asked by Greg Hopkins

I'm looking into downloading and using a pre-compiled (and cross-compiled for Windows/XP) GCC-for-Arm toolchain that will run in a Cygwin shell environment, specifically one that supports ARM7TDMI. The only one I can find so far is at gnuarm.com, but it is based on GCC 4.1. Is there a such a toolchain on this site that is based on the latest (4.8?) GCC? Thank you.

Toolchain released here does not support ARM7TDMI officially, but I would expect that the compiler should work for ARM7TDMI. If there is any problem for ARM7TDMI, it's probably in library (crtstuff, librdimon.a, etc.). Nevertheless, you can try this toolchain out with some simple programs to see whether it works or not.

Hoping this can help.

@chengbin: thanks, the latest version does support arm7tdmi-s; it is listed under the -mcpu= option in the GCC manual.
