Setting up the Beaglebone IDE (Angstrom 2012.12) Setting up the the Eclipse IDE with the Angstrom SDK was not easy for me. Not that it’s hard, but embedded stuff moves quickly, and there are always some parts of the setup that will have changed since a tutorial was written. The best tutorials I can find are from Derek Molloy. They can be seen at I am going to document my own experience here so I can refer back to it in the future should I need to repeat the process.
The settings posted here will only work for the Angstrom SDK/toolchain, and even then, their likelihood of them working is lower for each day past the publish date of this post. I am going to be working on a Beaglebone White with the 2012.12 Angstrom systemd-image. This comes with a development library and gdb debugger on-board, so the only thing that needs to be “set up” is the IDE on the host PC. My host PC is a Samsung QX410 with an Intel quad core I5 M460 processor, running Ubuntu 12.10. My development environment is Eclipse 3.8, and my toolchain is the Angstrom 2012.12 SDK. The first steps are to follow the instructions to install bitbake and Key steps are: MACHINE=beaglebone./oebb.sh config beaglebone MACHINE=beaglebone./oebb.sh update MACHINE=beaglebone./oebb.sh bitbake systemd-image MACHINE=beaglebone./oebb.sh bitbake meta-toolchain Once the toolchain is built, install Eclipse from the Ubuntu software center, and install the C/C++ plugins for it. The plugins are under “Help->Install New Software”.
Hi, I'm trying to install the generated SDK with the Angstrom Installer but the process always hangs after extracting the sysroot. It fails to find s. SDK/Toolchain/Application Developer Toolkit. Aircraft Design A Conceptual Approach Fourth Edition. All under the prefix of usr/local/angstrom. To install this tarball. Describing toolchain installation and usage.
The, by Derek Molloy, is a great step-by-step on setting things up. Download Hospital Guest Relations Program on this page. The video proceeds about as fast as I can type and click, so there isn’t a slowdown as compared to a written document. There are a few places where I diverged from the video. Instead of gnu-arm-linux-gnueabi, I use the toolchain from the Angstrom sdk: $ cd ~/Angstrom/setup-scripts/build/tmp-angstrom_v2012_12-eglibc/deploy/sdk/ $ chmod 755 angstrom-eglibc-i686-armv7a-vfp-neon-v2012.12-toolchain.sh $./angstrom-eglibc-i686-armv7a-vfp-neon-v2012.12-toolchain.sh Let it install in the default location. This is in /usr/local/oecore-i686.
