Hi all,
i am trying to build a GCC Cross-compiler for Cold Fire on cygwin. The
Source versions i am using are
binutils 2.17
gcc 4.1.1
newlib 1.14
The way in which i am building the tool chain
- build/install binutils:
cd /binutil-2.17
./configure --target=m68k-elf --prefix=/usr
make
make install
The general wisdom is to build in a different directory from
the source distribution (for both binutils and gcc):
mkdir bin-build
cd bin-build
../binutils-2.17/configure --target=m68k-elf --prefix=/usr
make
make install
- build/install compiler
cd gcc-4.1.1
./configure --target=m68k-elf --prefix=/usr
make LANGUAGE="C"
You probably also want --with-newlib.
Copy newlib-1.14/newlib into the gcc source directory.
The gcc build will pick up the correct include files
and build newlib.
Also --disable-libssp, because of a GCC bug.
the native compiler i am using is gcc 3.4.4 Cygwin-special
my binutils built successfully.
while building the compiler i am getting error while running make
"compiler cannot generate output file"
This message is not about your host compiler.
It is generated when the build attempts to compile a program
using the cross compiler. Look in config.log in the directory
in which the compile is run for information about the failure.
Often, when I get this kind of error, I will cd to the
build directory, set the PATH to include the binutils
install directory if necessary, and run the failing command.
I can then use -E or --print-search-paths or whatever to
figure out why the compiler cannot create an executable.
