If you don't have GNAT Pro, the easiest way is to use native Debian or Ubuntu GNAT FSF tool-chain for ARM. The result will run on Yocto if all libraries match. P.S. Purchase some inexpensive powerful board like Odroid XU4 for the developing platform. The native GNAT tends to run out of memory and is incredibly sluggish on low-end boards. P.P.S. What people find in Yocto? It reminds me first releases of Slackware, back in the future ... -- Regards, Dmitry A. Kazakov http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de
