Cross Platform Development

I am looking at using the rPi to write code and debug a project on a TI Launchpad with an ARM M3 chip. Looks like one of the tools I'll need is the lm4flash tool to use the debug interface on the Launchpad to program the flash on the target. I have some instructions on how to do that as follows... (download lm4flash sources from github) sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev make Then I should be able to flash the target board with a precompiled binary I have. Does anyone see a problem with any of this? I don't know much about linux. I will need to learn to use an editor for my sources that will then be compiled on the target. Any suggestions? -- Rick

I checked this at work today. The one-line COBOL program

display "hello world".

compiled and ran perfectly well, and produced the required output. Right, now to get Microfocus to implement COBOL for the Pi.

Since their compilers are based on the "POP" pseudocode system, the port should be quite easy. (But given the expected market size, it would be a labor of love.)

OpenCOBOL?

sudo apt-get install open-cobol

Works out of the box on a standard Raspbian install.
