MicrosemiTools and C++

Question

I've been trying to work with the Microsemi SmartFusion FPGA/MCU SOC boards and their "free" toolchain that includes an Eclipse-based "SoftConsole" IDE that appears to be based on the GNU C/C++ compiler chain. The Actel website claims the compiler supports C and C++ but the FAQ says [warning: pdf] C++ projects are not supported. Have any of you succeeded in creating simple C++ classes/objects with the tools?

I sent an email late yesterday and will post the response as soon as I have it. — Nate, Mar 04 '11 at 15:37

We have been successfully running C++ code on SmartFusion under uClinux using the GNU toolchain from CodeSourcery.

Further details are here.

That's a great tip! I'm running bare-metal though. No OS'es for me. – Nate Feb 23 '12 at 20:14

My friendly Microsemi FAE has shared that SoftConsole v3.4 should support C++ now.
