Cross Compiling from x86_64 to ARMv7

markcgriffiths · 04-10-2014, 01:52 AM

I am building an application targeted for the ARMv7 architecture and I am using Red Hat 6.4 to do that.

I am using some shared libraries that I need to convert over to the ARMv7, are there any easy tools I can use to just convert these libraries over?

Which architecture are you using in Red Hat 6.4?

You have cross Compile with ARM architecture. Try ELDK (It is one of the cross compilation tool).

Cross-Linux From Scratch has a huge amount of information available for both host-system and compiler setups.

The OSDev Wiki also has a ton of info and links for cross-compiling. It mentions Clang/LLVM making this easier than most.

Edit: I did read you were looking specifically for shared libs, but personally, I don't see any way around using a compiler for that unless they were already built and you were looking for a custom linker/loader design, etc.
