gcc setup to use bbc microbit

[mvcorrea]

Hi there,

Any help on setting up gcc compiller to use with bbc microbit? And a simple example?

I know I can use the mbed platform to program it (among others)... but :(

actually I use avr-gcc/makefile via command line and love it (on osx).

trying to do the same with my microbit.

When doing homework I discovered I should..

• need to install GCC ARM (gcc-arm-none-eabi-*)
• install some libraries from nordic (nrf51822 specific)
• install some libraries microbit specific (compass, accelerometer....)

Anyone manage on join it all together? any tutorial/tip?

best regards, Marcelo

Hi Hung, I already passed my eyes by the mbed yotta.

If possible, I dont wanna go to the mbed approach.

I already managed to install the arm gcc on the mac.

now I need a help on inserting the required libraries and build a simple example.

thanks anyway
