Hello everybody,

I have been working on getting this thing together but I can't seem to get it fixed.
As I recently changed from the Raspberry Pi to the Banana Pi, I stumbled upon a few problem when cross compiling from Linux (64 bit) to this board.

There are no default libraries for this board, so I grabbed them myself (Copied everything with)
I added this folder to the path of lazarus Project-> Project Options->Path-> Libraries
However, I was not sure which crosscompiler I had to create, so I have been trying them all (toolchains)
I tried the arm-linux, arm-linux--eabihf and even the one for the raspberryPi2 (as it also has an ARMV7 CPU)

I always get the same error:
Could somebody help me to get things working? I don't think I have been doing stupid things but I am not getting there yet. If any additional information is needed, please let me know!

Thanks in advance!

After hours of trying, fiddling around,... I managed to compile and run it on the Banana Pi.

I did some googling about the libraries and I forgot some. After adding, another error showed up that it could not find the libraries under /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/
I don't know how you guys are able to just put them in a directory and let fpc work from there (as I thought I did just that), so I copied them over in the /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf folder (which I had to create on the host machine, not the target machine)

It compiled!

So, if somebody could explain how to fix it that I can put it in one folder, I can supply you the libraries. I used the arm-linux--eabihf toolchain (not sure this is the most efficient one but it worked)

We not just copy to a folder of host pc and work
on host PC, we rename if needed all target OS libraries for FPC
it's a lot of work, for this reason we have so many target OS-libraries to our serves ready to use...

Anyway please post for Banana Pi
-FPC cross element script, is the same with Raspberry Pi 2 ?
- and the target OS (it's Debian ?) OS-Libraries

We will upload all these, to our servers after test...

Thanks Sir
I think, we must test this.

Many Software Companies wait for a cheap and powerful arm-linux board.

Don't forget OrangePi too, even more powerful

yes orangepi support would be nice !!!
