Regular ContributorHi,
Unfortunately, we do not have the documents regarding GSL support.
It may be helpful if you could share what exactly what exactly you meant by unable, e.g what was the error logs/report? Can you share them here?
May I ask, if you have you done any arm gcc cross compile before?
New ContributorHi, thanks for the reply.
To answer your last question first: No, I did not do any cross compilation before in this respect. I've a hardware background (vhdl/xlinx/microsemi) and this is my first attempt to support a colleague which needs GSL in de SoC EDS environment with Cyclone V under Linux.
My goal is to be able to include the GSL-2.6 library within the SoC EDS (DS5). So I opened a SoC EDS command shell, retrieved the GSL 2.6, and unpacked the GSL package. Next step was:
$ ./configure --host=arm-linux-gnueabihf --prefix=/home/<myname>/gsl --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf (I hope this is correct, I'm not sure about the options here, should I add any other flags ???)
$ make clean (between each attempt)
$ make => resulted in errors (see below):
Hope that you can give me a hint or info how to have the correct options for ./configure ..... (and should the following make use the default GCC compiler on the laptop where I build it, or should it be the arm-linux-gcc used to make the ARM binary)?
$ uname
CYGWIN_NT-10.0
Kind regards
Bert
