Cross compile for QorIQ under Windows environment

[lukaszzemla]

Because of some constraints we will have to build applications for QorIQ (P1020) in Windows environment.

Has anyone tried it and could recommend some toolchain (working natively in Win 7)?

Thank you in advance!

You could use CodeWarrior for PA, which contains a cross compile toolchain for linux app.

Our "Linux SDK for QorIQ processors" works on Linux workstation, there is no version for Windows.

As a workaround, I can suggest running this SDK on Linux virtual machine. Using in this way gives a number of advantages - you can have virtual machine snapshots with known SDK configurations, backup your machines, run several machines at a time, etc.

Also, we offer our CodeWarrior software, this software works on Windows PC

Have a great day,

Unfortunately virtual machines do not solve our problem. We may use (and already use) virtual machines with Linux SDK for creation of kernel and rootfs - it is responsibility of embedded SW team.

The another story is an application team. The application team produces application using home grown graphical programming tools - they 'draw' programs and then C code is being generated (tool invokes right compiler). Thas tool works only on Windows and porting it to Linux is too big effort. We thought that we might use some open source cross compilers working on Windows - only for building userspace applications.
