How to compile C code without any libs as ARMv4 code?
« on: March 16, 2023, 09:19:54 pm »
Hi, i'm new to CB and cross-compiling. I've somehow managed to install an ARM compiler on my Windows 10 installation (Mingw).
When i create an ARM Project i can only choose between some evaluation boards, but in fact i don't want to use one of them as i don't own them. I simply like to compile code written in pure C (without any libs) into ARMv4 assembly machine code which would run on an emulation/simulator.

Code
int main (void) {
return 0;
}


When i simply remove all the extra files/code that comes with one of the ARM projects i end up with
Code
