I am new to linux and i want a compile C programs for my LPC2148 controller. I checked in gcc.gnu.org and they have asked to install cygwin.

Please anyone explain me what are the tools that I have to install on my windows7 PC to compile the C programs. Please provide me elaborate steps because i am lost already.

thanks in advanced.
 

I, too, know just about nothing about linux, but I do have cygwin. Cygwin is a program that allows a windows computer to run linux programs. It's available free. Once you install cygwin you should be able to enter the arcane world of linux. But be prepared for a lot of frustration.
 

dont go in the route of cygwin in windows. instead for arm controller , gcc tools use either 'yagarto' or 'winarm'
you will be safe .
since you are from linux , use 'make' for your arm code development.
given below are the links for you :

YAGARTO - Yet another GNU ARM toolchain

You can many GCC binaries for different target architectures at www.gnupit.org
Lasted for ARM 4.6.3 with openocd-0.6.0
Tested with STM32F4Discovery
