Hello,
I use Maple IDE 0.0.12 on Win.XP which works quite well. I also tried the Unix Toolchain on Ubuntu. I wonder if there is any hack how to compile a project on Win. outside Maple IDE, for example by using cygwin. Or is the build process hardcoded somewhere deep in IDE?
Can I compile a project outside the Maple IDE (on Windows)?

There are a bunch of threads on this forum describing how to build projects from the command line, i.e. outside the IDE.
IIRC, most are Linux, but there are some Windows discussions. If you are willing to install a GNU-style make, I think you should have all of the pieces you need.There is the UNIX/OS X command line build documentation:
http://leaflabs.com/docs/unix-toolchain.htmlYou could use the toolchain inside the Maple IDE's installation, gcc and binutils are there, and the documentation can be found on the 'net. Or you could a newer version of gcc and binutils built by ARM:

You do not need to install any GNU type tools. All the tools are already in the tool chain download.

Moderatornewyorkbrass - I don't use windows, so it's handy to know that the IDE install includes a viable
make. IIRC some people have reported problems on a thread or two, maybe feurig remembers what that was (but I may be wrong about the cause of the problems).As I wrote, there is no need to install a newer toolchain. However the launchpad version of gcc has significant improvements, which some folks value, over the version included in the Maple-IDE download. For example ARM's launchpad gcc supports fixed point arithmetic or whole-program optimisation. So I think it's handy to mention the availability of ARM's gcc.
