Re: Crosstool problem and question

you directly is not the most appropriate way to ask this question but I
didn't find a crosstool mailing list or anything.

Use <crossgcc@sources.redhat.com>. I'm cc'ing that list.


I'm trying to build G++ 2.95.3 on and for Intel Linux targeting PPC
Linux.  I got crosstool and it got the tgzs but after an hour or so,
crosstool ends with:

+ cd /opt/crosstool/gcc-2.95.3-glibc-2.2.2/powerpc-750-linux-gnu
+ sh /home/chrisn/g++/crosstool-0.38/masq.sh
+ cd /home/chrisn/g++/crosstool-0.38
+ gcc fix-embedded-paths.c -o /opt/crosstool/gcc-2.95.3-glibc-2.2.2/powerpc-750-linux-gnu/bin/fix-embedded-paths
fix-embedded-paths.c: In function `testit':
fix-embedded-paths.c:377: initializer element is not constant
fix-embedded-paths.c:377: (near initialization for
`all_tests[2].old_oldrootlen')


I found a strlen() at that location and replaced it with a literal but
this seem strange.

The literal is ok. Yeah, screwy code on my part! (Which version of gcc complained about that error? I want all versions to do so!)

Now my question: I want to build on Intel Linux for host Intel Windows
and target PPC Linux.  That's a "Canadian Cross," right?  Your notes say
that demo-canadian.sh isn't done but it's hard to tell if the notes or
the script are more recent.  Any guidance?

I don't support host 'windows' directly. Is cygwin ok? If that's what you want, you'll first need to find a Linux -> Cygwin cross compiler. I haven't played around with that. Any reason you can't build the compilers on Cygwin? - Dan
