I know that FPC works under ARM+Linux. Is this also true for the Cortex version of ARM? One of our major applications is written in C+ + simply because it is to run in the future on an embedded system as well as the PC. Well the embedded processor has been chosen - the Luminary (TI) ARM-Cortex processor.
"Cortex" is a whole family of ARM CPUs. FPC full supports the ARM Cortex "A" family of processor (A8, A9). The Luminary cpu is a Cortex- M3. These only support Thumb and Thumb-2. There is support for Thumb-2 (and in particular the Cortex-M3) in FPC trunk, but I don't know how well-tested or maintained it is (the support was added via third party patches).
