Newton for Armv7

[Corpsman]

Hello,

I normally develop for Linux32-Bit and Windows 32-Bit, here i use newton 2.34 and all works fine.

Now i bought a odroid mini pc and want to support my projects for this one too, everything is written on FreePascal which works fine on Arm.

Are there any tutorials for getting a newton.so für arm computers, or is there one aviable for downloading ? Here there is a post for building it for android, which can also run on my odroid, so i think in general it should be possible to do.

> Linux odroid 3.8.13.16 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Feb 11 10:47:21 BRST 2014 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux

You should be able to use CMAKE to generate a makefile, or simply one of the makefiles that ship with the project.
We are running Newton on many arm platforms, in 32bit and 64bit.

[d.l.i.w]

If you want to use cmake, you basically have to find a cmake toolchain for your target (android?) and configure cmake to use it (e.g. via cmake-gui), this should create the right makefiles.

Maybe this is a good starting point: http://stackoverflow.com/a/19375221

EDIT:
You have to make sure that Newton is compiled without SSE, so currently the cmake files aren't ready for this without changes...
