Rev Pi Connect+ cross compiler toolchain?

[keith.dart]

Hello,

I'm just coming up to speed with this product. In need to compile custom software, preferably in a CI system on an Intel host. Is there a toolchain available that allows this?

Also, the software is quite old. Is there any way to update it to at least Buster?

Hi keith.dart, have a look at the "CodeLite Tutorial".
Eclipse is also possible so please just ask google here.

Ok. I was rather hoping that a vendor touting industrial grade products and support would have a better, ready-made solution for this.

On that note, is it possible to run the Raspbian Buster on this? 64-bit?

Hi keith.dart, you can also have a look at the VisualStudio cross compiler toolchain called VisualGDB.
We are preparing a last "Stretch" release before we continue with "Buster".

OK, thanks. However, I use Linux so I'm looking for the right toolchain for this that runs on Linux. I'm sure you're aware there are many target and toolchain options and it can sometimes be hard to get the right one. Since you guys must do this a lot I was thinking you might have some ready-made "recipes" for getting a toolchain up and running.

Hi keith.dart we are using those that I have pointed you to. Maybe the RaspberryPi Community forum may help you with your wish.

Any update on this? I'm currently using your device for an exploratory project, and having a prebuilt toolchain, or at least a script for generating it would save me a lot of time.
