Hi  LINARO-TEAM,

 

I would like start a software development on a “Renesas RZ (ARM Cortex-A9) MPU (R7S721010xxx” by using Eclipse IDE (Kepler - 4.3.1).

> Global objective = Use free SW development tools

 

I have read, that the “Linaro GCC Toolchain Release Supports Full Range of ARM Cortex-A Processors” and it’s an open source software for the ARM architecture, including the GCC toolchain.

> Well – I think that is what I need.

 

So, I have installed the Linaro Toolchain (gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_7-2013q3-20130916-win32.exe) and test the compilation of the “Hello World ARM C Project” for the Target Processor “cortex-A9”

> So, the compilation is OK.

 

 

NOW, I would like prepare a small TEST-Project with FreeRTOS.

FreeRTOSV8.0.0_Release_Candidate_2

> I have found the “Renesas RZ (ARM Cortex-A9) RTOS Demo”: http://www.freertos.org/Renesas_RZ_Cortex-A9-RTOS.html

 

But the two projects are provided to be built with the IAR Embedded Workbench or the ARM DS-5 embedded development tools.

> I have seen that the DS-5 Development Studio is not for free but it use also the Linaro GNU Compiler (GCC) toolchain.

 

So, I have tried to import the “Renesas RZ (ARM Cortex-A9) RTOS Demo” project to Eclipse, but the import doesn’t work – and I’m not sure that the project uses the Linaro GNU GCC Compiler.

> I think that Demo project for DS-5 use also special plugins/configuration settings from the Development Studio – so this can’t work ?!…

 

 

HELP:

I’m new in the “Eclipse IDE / Compiler (GCC) toolchain” WORLD …

 

So, can you help me to give me a good direction - what I need to do to make running this small “Blinky-Demo for Renesas RZ (ARM Cortex-A9) with the FreeRTOS” by using the Linaro GCC Toolchain.

 

> Or have you another small Demo project for the Linaro GCC Toolchain which uses the FreeRTOS for the Renesas RZ (ARM Cortex-A9) family?

 

… Or you think that is not easily possible to do that for a Newcomer like me?

 

I hope that you can help me to put me on the right road.
