C/C++ cross development for BeagleBone in Windows

This article explains in detail how to set up a C/C++ Toolchain with a gcc Cross Compiler from linaro.org and the Eclipse IDE in Windows 7 and shows how both are used with a BeagleBone board. It's explained how to Cross Compile, Remote Deploy and Remote Debug (with gdb) a simple "Hello world" example project. 

It's a step-by-step instruction made for people who know C programming in general but aren't very familiar with Cross Compilers and like to stay in the Windows environment instead of changing to Linux.
