Thnx in advance.

HI Mohamed,sure it is possible to compile FreeRTOS using arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc on Linux.

Either you use a Makefile which invokes the compiler and type make from the command-line. Or you use Eclipse which will invoke the compiler for you.

Youi can download the compiled versions of the GNU compilers, or you can compile them your self ( which is a bit complicated to do ).

The Eclipse IDE’s are written in Java, and therefor the will run on any platform ( Windows, Linux )
