Does RTI DDS intend to support Beaglebone Black?

Hi RTI,

I would like to know if there is any plan to provide target libraries and toolchain for the Beaglebone Black hardware. It surprise me that companies like Prismtech does support such popular hardware.

Regards,

Vincent

RTI had Connext running on the Beaglebone platform at least four years ago.  Talk to your local sales representitive, and ask for an additional platform license for the applicable libraries.

Hi Vicent,

Even though it is not an officially stated on the documentation, the same libraries built for Raspberry Pi Models A and B (armv6vfphLinux3.xgcc4.7.2) should run on the ARM Cortex A8 that on the BeagleBone. We have run used it in some demos and presentations in the past.

You can follow the instructions in this HOWTO to cross compile on your BeagleBone. The cross compiler and instructions it uses for Raspberry Pi should work for you.

Let me know if you have any issues with the libraries.

Thanks,
Fernando.
