Debian Hello World

DART-MX8M-MINI Audio Record/Play

Build a sample C "Hello, world!" program (Cross Compiling)

Create a file called myhello.c with the following content:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
	printf("Hello, World!\n");
	return 0;
}

Export the C (cross-)compiler path:

$ export CC=~/var_mx8mm_dart_debian_buster/toolchain/gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc

Compile:

$ $CC myhello.c -o myhello

Now you should have an app called myhello, that can be run on your target board.
You can add it to your rootfs image or copy it directly to the rootfs on the board (using scp, for example).

Build a sample C "Hello, world!" program on Target

One of the biggest advantages of having Debian OS is you can compile your code directly on the target. Although not recommended as linking big programs can take entire memory but for smaller test is sufficient. This reduces back and forth transfer of the compiled binary between host PC. On Target:

Getting Ready target to install tools

# apt-get install -y gcc g++ automaker cmake build-essential vim

Create myhello.c file via vim

# vim myhello.c

Paste below code,

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
	printf("Hello, World!\n");
	return 0;
}

ESC :wq! and save the file,

Compile code on Target

# gcc myhello.c -o myhello.out

Execute on Target

# ./myhello.out
Hello, World!
#

# gcc myhello.c -o myhello.out
