Hi all,
Want to start programming in C++ to create applications running on the BBB using Eclipse in Ubuntu but I’m having serious problems to even start, so please help…and remember: I’m very very new to all of this.
Using Ubunto on my laptop I’m running the following to install Eclipse + C++ compiler (installtion succeeded)
sudo apt-get install eclipse eclipse-cdt g++ gcc
Next step is installing the toolchain (not sure if it’s the right one!) but it’s installing with success
sudo tar -xjvf /home/downloads/angstrom-2011.03-x86_64-linux-armv7a-linux-gnueabi-toolchain.tar.bz2
In Eclipse, I create a new C++ project and choose Cross GCC then I right click on project and choose properties->C++ build → Settings and Tool settings. I chanded the Cross GCC Compiler, Cross G++Compiler and Cross G++ Linker command to:
arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.7
Is that right?
My .cpp file has, for simplicity, only:
#include
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << “Hello” << endl;
return 0;
}
I can build and run the project as local C/C++ application but not on the BBB, I don’t understand what I’m missing. I have googled alot but each tutorial is making on thier own way which leaves me in a mess 
Please help me on the right track, how do I start from scratch to be able to run C++ on my BBB?
