    Development Environment for the Raspberry Pi using a Cross Compiling Toolchain and Eclipse | Hertaville 07.10.13 13:37 Hertaville Welcome to Hertaville! Development Environment for the Raspberry Pi using a Cross Compiling Toolchain and Eclipse Posted on September 28, 2012 by halherta UPDATED July 15th 2013 In this blog entry the setup of a cross-compiling development environment for the Raspberry Pi will be demonstrated. This will include the Official Raspbian (armhf) cross compiling toolchain (available from github) Eclipse for C/C++ Developers (Linux) We will finally write a simple Hello World program on our development PC, compile it using the cross compiler and then deploy it onto our Raspberry Pi board to run it. I’m going to assume that you have already installed a Raspbian Wheezy image on your RPi board and that you have Linux installed on your desktop PC. For this tutorial I am using the Crunchbang 11 Linux OS (64-bit) on my PC. The instructions provided should work on most Debian/Ubuntu based Linux distributions running directly on a PC or as a a guest operating system via VMWare/ VirtualBox . A remote debugging tutorial; which I consider to be the continuation of this tutorial, can be found here. Finally, Derek Molloy has a great video tutorial on setting up a similar environment for the Beaglebone. Watching this video was incredibly informative and helped me set up this tutorial. So what is a cross compiling toolchain and why use one ? A native compiler such as the default gcc tool on the PC is a compiler that runs on an Intel machine, as well as creates binaries intended to be run on an Intel machine.

  • Drawing in GTK+
    CSci493.70 Graphical User Interface Programming Prof. Stewart Weiss Drawing in GTK+ Drawing in GTK+ Background In order to understand how to draw in GTK, you rst have to understand something about how GTK draws widgets, because how GTK draws widgets has an important role in how you design your drawing application. An understanding of how GTK draws widgets is also required if you ever plan to build your own custom widgets. Windows and Clipping Most windowing systems are designed around the idea that an application's visual display lies within a rectangular region on the screen called its window. The windowing system, e.g. Gnome or KDE or Explorer, does not automatically save the graphical content of an application's windows; instead it asks the application itself to repaint 1 its windows whenever it is needed. For example, if a window that is stacked below other windows gets raised to the top, then a client program has to repaint the area that was previously obscured. When the windowing system asks a client program to redraw part of a window, it sends an exposure event to the program that contains that window. An exposure event is simply an event sent from the underlying windowing system to a widget to notify it that it must redraw itself. In this context, a "window" means "a rectangular region with automatic clipping", not a top-level application window. Clipping is the act of removing portions of a window that do not need to be redrawn, or looked at the other way, it is determining which are the only regions of a window that must be redrawn.
