Compilers: Adding new targets

When submitting a pull request for a new target, we need to submit the reports for images built by GCC, ARMCC, and IAR - does this mean we need to purchase IAR and ARMCC in order to add targets?

Also, does ARMCC 6 work ok with mbed? (or any advice on version compatibility)

thanks

Hi

Note that if you port a new ST board (Nucleo or Discovery), you can only test with the GCC_ARM compiler (free). We (ST team) will re-test your code on all compilers including ARM and IAR. So, it will not be necessary for you to buy them.

Thanks for this clarification!

Thanks! We have 2 new platforms but they are custom boards, one has the F205 and one L475

I already have IAR but looks like we'll need to purchase ARMCC just to submit the target :(

Hi Curt, The new targets need to be built and verified with all 3 compilers before submitting pull requests.

Please reach out if you need any more clarifications.

Thanks, Naveen, Team mbed
