  armv7l
Posted by Stephan Bielmann on Jun-19-2014 21:48
Hello there,

is there already a version of the library available, not production ready but for testing, for the armv7l platform ?

I found http://www.advsofteng.com/chartdir_cpp_linux_armv7.tar.gz in this forum, however that build seems rather old, and although it compiles on my system, no binary produces output at all.

Hi Stephan,

We now have two editions of ChartDirector for C++ ARM on Linux. One is for the Linux
(armhf) OS architecture. The other is for the Linux (armel) OS architecture. Both can be
used with armv7l CPU. You may download them from:

(a) ChartDirector for C++ for Linux (armhf):

http://www.advsofteng.com/chartdir_cpp_linux_armhf.tar.gz

(b) ChartDirector for C++ for Linux (armel):

http://www.advsofteng.com/chartdir_cpp_linux_armel.tar.gz

For your case, please make sure you are using the one that matches your Linux type. If you
are not sure, you may have to try both.

In the download, there are many sample programs in "ChartDirector/cppdemo". You may try
the one in "ChartDirector/cppdemo/simplebar". Simply go to that directory, and enter
"make", then "make test". (This assumes you have the proper development tools, such as
the "make" program, a gcc compiler, etc., in your ARM machine.) This should create an
image file "simplebar.png" in the same directory.

If you encounter any issue, please let me know.

Regards
Peter Kwan

Thank you Peter,

it works now. For those who want to see whether they have armhf or armel, this
article explains how to find out:
