430025 - TT: Cross-platform build for linux on ARM

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(Tamarin Graveyard :: Build Config, defect)

Description

[Brent Baker]

Need to get TT building in Scratchbox using Maemo and the ARM target so that we can produce a shell executable that will be able to run on the Nokia N810. This device is going to be used as a performance benchmark device so having this building is a priority to the Adobe QE team.

Currently the cross-platform build system does not handle building in this environment. 

1) Setting up Maemo: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/4.0.1/INSTALL.txt
2) Upgrading to Python 2.5: http://pymaemo.garage.maemo.org/sdk_installation.html
3) Update to make 3.81: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/

You want TT not TC, or both?

At this stage I am mainly interested in getting this building for TT as there is an ARM and THUMB jit in TT. But if possible then both would be preferred.

After building TT on maemo platform, can somebody confirm whether AS3 scripts runs on ARM target. Current maemo SDK doesn't have gcc 4. Is there any code in TT which is gcc 4 specific?

Attachment: Patch for cross-platform Maemo build

This patch should allow cross-compile for Maemo. It has been minimally tested on the device itself, not in the emulator. Only the release build has been tested.

TT is no longer being maintained.
