Configuring the ARM Compiler toolchain automatically

If GCC is in a directory listed in the PATH environment variable, you can configure the tools using the command:

armcc --arm_linux_configure --arm_linux_config_file=config_file_path

If GCC is not on your system path, you can specify this explicitly:

armcc --arm_linux_configure --arm_linux_config_file=config_file_path --configure_gcc=path_to_gcc

where path_to_gcc is the path and filename of the GCC driver binary, that is, the actual gcc executable (with .exe suffix on Windows). For a cross-compiler the filename is, for example, arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc (with .exe suffix on Windows).

During configuration, the compiler also determines the location of the GNU linker used by GCC and queries the linker for additional information. If this cannot be determined, or you want to override the normal path to the GNU linker, you can specify this using the --configure_gld=path_to_gld option, where path_to_gld is the complete path and filename of the GNU ld binary.

You can also manually:
