BBB and Geany

Hi everyone

Can i program my BBB with Geany (EDI) ?? if that’s possible how can i do it ?? i’m using a normal PC that runs windows 7 32bits , i’m new with the BBB and i’m stocked with the programming issue , need help

Best regards

I edit files on my BB from a Windows PC using Notepad++ with its FTP
plugin. It works very well. I use putty to build.

I also use Geany from a Linux PC.

Hi Taceant,

I installed Geany in my pc , how can i configure it to compile my C programs and send them to my BBB ???

Best regards

Hi Wadi,

To compile on the PC for the BB means cross-compiling. There are many
ways of doing that, it can be tricky though, just do a Google search
or search this email list. I have done it with the BB only when I was
playing with buildroot [1] which makes it very easy.

When using Debian (or previously Angstrom) on the BB I always used the
gcc compiler that comes with them, in other words I did not
cross-compile. This is much easier, I just used gcc via putty.
