Run helloWorld program in Ada language on STM32MP157F board

[BKAAN.1]

Hi, we are trying to run a simple helloWorld program on the STM32MP157F board, but we couldn't find any documentation or any instructions on how to do so. We re not sure about the requirements. Is someone have any idea how to do that or where to find instructions that would be appreciated.

Perhaps the same as any ADA compiler under Linux, or Embedded Linux

Perhaps pull in the compiler and check dependencies

Hello @BKAAN.1​ ,

Today ST does not provide any kind of support for ADA cross compilation. You can see the our arm-ostl-linux-gnueabi- toolchain does not support ADA compiler.

However, as mentioned @Community member​ , it may be possible but it will need a work from your side. It will be up to you to add the necessary elements to support the ADA cross compiler with our ecosystem.

Maybe this documentation can help you to go forward on the topic.

Kind regards,

Erwan.

A bit late but Ada is by far the best language for embedded development in 2025. No other language has Adas type system that can model hardware mapped registers so neatly and safely making maintenance and coding easier at the same time. It was a great decision for me to use Ada enabled by this post.

Also a bit off-topic - the question was about Cortex-A (STM32MP) - not Cortex-M
