GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain

Starting guide, step by step using CLI to build elf or hex

Asked by Neo Stark

Hi!
I have just started working with ARM processors and am wondering how to use the terminal (command-line) to compile, link and build the executable file (as elf, bin or hex).
I want to achieve this using arm-none-eabi-g++.
The target processor is a STM32F407I.

I am unclear on the process involved to get my code onto the processor.
I have used the Keil IDE and CooCox IDE of which both work. But now I am using Linux I need to be able to run all the commands one at a time to understand the process and learn about the toolchain.

Can anyone please either describe how I would go about this or post a link to a method using arm-none-eabi-gcc found at https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded/4.7/4.7-2013-q3-update/+download/gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_7-2013q3-20130916-linux.tar.bz2.

Thank-you!

Once you decompress that bz2 file, you can find a folder share/gcc-arm-none-eabi/samples. There are instructions in readme.txt and some simple projects under that folder, please read and study them first.

Can you help with this problem?
