Create new Simple App
Submitted by Markos on 11 November, 2008 - 15:10.
Hi,
I apologize if this is not the right place to post this. If not, please feel free to move it / tell me where to post.
I would like to develop a simlpe, plain ansi C linux app for my palm to act as data logger, using serial IO with a proto board.
I would like to know which dev tools should I get -the less, the better-, and from.
I took a look at opie, but it's gui-oriented (and huge), besides I should get familiar with building a Opie App, while my app will be only console and standard IO.
Thanks in advance !

You will just need an ARM
You will just need an ARM cross-compiler of some sort. I just use the one that openembedded builds, but scratchbox may be an easier option.
The other way is to use gcc directly on the device (can be slow to compile though). For example you could install debian and then apt-get gcc and whatever build tools and libraries you'd normally use on your PC.
Thank You! I'll check it out
Thank You! I'll check it out as soon as I have some spare time!
