I didn't know about this! My last experience messing around with compiling for the PRUs was really frustrating - I gave up after about three days' screwing around with freeware tools that didn't work.
Could you point to where the PRU compiler is located on the BeagleBone file tree? I'd like to try this out!
- kens 10y agoThe TI PRU compiler is at /usr/bin/clpru on my BeagleBone (from Adafruit, with Debian). If it's not on your BeagleBone, you can download it here: http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#TI_PRU_Code_Generation_Tools http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#TI_PRU_... I'd recommend using the CCS IDE (as I describe in the article) rather than the command line compiler, but it's up to you. You'll still probably encounter frustration - it's not an Arduino experience for sure.
- cushychicken 10y agoI think a lot of my frustration stemmed from NOT using CCS. Maybe I should just bite the bullet and do that...
