SQL Anywhere supports ARMEL LINUX?

[Former Member]

One of our important customer found that  SQL Anywhere for ARM Linux just only supports ARMHF, and it seems that SQL Anywhere for ARM does not support ARMEL.

My question is that if there are any options to support ARMEL, or is there plan to build a new version to support ARMEL Linux?

Appreciate for Any comments

Hi Qiu,

Out of curiosity, does the chipset in use not contain VFP support? Or are they just using an operating system that only supports the armel ABI?

Thanks,

Hi Mikel,

   The customer tested SQL Anywhere on some kind of network gateway devices, and this device's CPU is based on ARM v7 which does not support hard floating point arithmetic. And SQL Anywhere runs abnormally on this ARM cpu. It seems that SQL Anywhere just support ARMHF?

Thanks.
