tasks that worked with the BeagleBone also
work in the exact same way with the Pi.
Once the Pi cross compilation and linking
process completed, I was able to drag and
drop the easyAsPI binary file into the Pi’s
sliceofPI folder. In an identical manner, I
attempted to execute easyAsPI binary without
the execute permissions. As with the
BeagleBone, the file would not execute until
I issued the chmod command to enable
execute permissions.
Standing at the Cross Roads
This discussion began by introducing the
BeagleBone and Pi in the context of software
development. Last time, we loaded and
updated the BeagleBone and Pi Linux
operating systems. This time around, we
have built a Linux cross compilation
development system on a discarded
ThinkPad laptop, and cross compiled simple
C++ applications for both the BeagleBone
GCC, and Linux are now part of your
design cycle. NV
