Programming on ARM computer
 

I'm attempting to get the NetBeans plugin for FRC java to work on a chromebook with an ARM processor running Ubuntu. But when I try to load up the plugin on this computer, I'm getting this:
I'd previously been programming on Ubuntu on a computer with an i7, and it worked great, but this computer has a super nice battery life, and I'd like to get it working on an ARM processor as well.

I have a few questions that can probably help me do this:

1. What do these platform specifics do? Is it possible to compile code onto the robot without them?

2. Are these open source? If so, where could the sources be found?
I could probably use them to compile them on this computer, and then manually install them.

3. Has anyone else gotten this working on ARM? If so, could you share your experience?

I'd be grateful if you could help with / answer any of these questions!

If I remember correctly, the plugins depend on libc6 32 bit version. Not sure if that helps you in any way.

I think it works on my Raspberry Pi. I installed everything using the default way, and netbeans using apt-get
try apt-get install netbeans
then the rest of the instruction on the FRC WPILIB Cookbook. I believe that APT will find the best package, meant for your resources and install that, instead of a general passage. It will also gather the resources.

NetBeans and programming it works fine, it is just that I can't seem to deploy any code onto the robot from this computer. @yash101, which instructions in particular are you thinking about? I followed the ones that I found but ended with the above mentioned error message, and that seems to stop me from deploying the program.

The plugins are actually working pretty well, I mean the class path works, and I can program with it, it just won't deploy.
