Hi all.
I'm trying to build GCC 4.8.3 with ObjC support for ARM Cortex-M4.
I had this working with an earlier version of GCC (I think it was GCC 4.5).
-But now I get build errors.
It seems to me that it's required to add the --enable-libobjc switch (otherwise
I the build stops when it can't find libobjc).
(I do not require libobjc, if it's possible to build GCC with ObjC support
without libobjc).
I am building this toolchain on a PowerMac G5 (so it's not a trivial intel-Mac
build, as the latest host-GCC I can use is v4.2!)
The bootstrap GCC builds fine. newlib-2.1.0 builds fine, however building the
final GCC fails.
These are my build-lines:
Bootstrap GCC:
"$source/gcc-4.8.3/configure" --target="$target" --prefix="$prefix"
--disable-nls --with-gcc --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --with-dwarf2
--enable-multilib --enable-interwork --with-newlib --disable-libssp
--with-system-zlib --disable-decimal-float --disable-libffi
--disable-libmudflap --with-multilib-list=armv6-m,armv7-m,armv7e-m,armv7-r
--disable-libstdcxx-pch --without-headers
--enable-languages="c,c++,objc,obj-c++" --enable-libobjc
make all-gcc && sudo make install-gcc && echo "Success"
Newlib:
"$source/newlib-2.1.0/configure" --target="$target" --prefix="$prefix"
--enable-interwork --enable-multilib --disable-libssp --disable-nls
--enable-newlib-io-long-long --enable-newlib-register-fini
--disable-newlib-supplied-syscalls
make CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET="-D__IEEE_BIG_ENDIAN -D__IEEE_BYTES_LITTLE_ENDIAN
-D__BUFSIZ__=64" && sudo make install || sudo make install && echo "Success"
(note: make install fails on first try but succeeds on second try, which is why
I do it twice - this is due to that a directory is missing the first time).
Final GCC:
"$source/gcc-4.8.3/configure" --target="$target" --prefix="$prefix"
--disable-nls --with-gcc --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --with-dwarf2
--enable-multilib --enable-interwork --with-newlib --disable-libssp
--with-system-zlib --disable-decimal-float --disable-libffi
--disable-libmudflap --with-multilib-list=armv6-m,armv7-m,armv7e-m,armv7-r
--disable-libstdcxx-pch --with-headers=yes
--enable-languages="c,c++,objc,obj-c++" --enable-libobjc
make all && sudo make install && echo "Success"
But when I add the --enable-libobjc, I get the following output:
---8<-----8<-----8<-----
make[4]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'.

Note: the "Checking multilib configuration for libobjc..."
The strange thing here is that the line above the failed one builds fine, but
suddenly ./libtool is not found (?!??)
My question is: What's the correct / intended way of building GCC with ObjC
support ?
Love
Jens
