Hello,
I try to use this application https://github.com/repetier/Repetier-Server on my mips-based router. Sorry, I'm not a developer. Please could someone explain the cross-compiling steps for Linux (I use Ubuntu 14 x86 as build system). gcc/g++ toolchain for mips is from this project http://freetz.org/wiki/help/howtos/common/newbie.en.
Do I have also to cross-compile boost for mips or only install the Ubuntu-source-package (sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev).
Many Boost libraries are header-only, so I would try just installing just the source for a start. If that doesn't work, you might find that you also need a few Boost libraries built (chrono, system perhaps). You can then install pre-built libraries and add whatever is necessary to link to these. The Ubuntu install process may not be the most recent version (and you don't have the most recent Ubuntu for that matter ;-). so you might need to install Boost using the instructions on the Boost website, and also either build or download prebuilt libraries. In general, the most recent versions have the least bugs ;-) Good luck! Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal UK LA8 8AB +44 (0) 1539 561830
