Hi, I've started working on a download page for the website. Currently the download links point directly to the sourceforge file listing but that's not enough for the users to be able to chose the right(tm) download.
The page I've done is at: http://notk.org/~adrien/picker.php It's mostly an HTML shim with javascript and a list of toolchain descriptions to generate the page content. The php bit is only there to provide an "include" directive to easily and cleanly provide a default download list if the user doesn't have JS[1]. As you can see on the page, besides the layout which isn't perfect, the toolchain descriptions are completely wrong. If you maintain such a toolchain and wish to be listed on the download page, please provide me with a toolchain description. The process to update the list on the server is not decided yet but for now, please reply to this email with JS code that creates one or more objects like in http://notk.org/~adrien/toolchains.js . There should also be a way to filter based on compile-time configuration. In particular, the setting for C++ exception matters a lot. I haven't added this yet because I lack visibility about them (how many of them are there in practice?). As such, please also mention such specific settings that you might have for your toolchains and once there is a clearer picture, the code can follow. Don't hesitate to mention anything that may be missing on my page (no, I won't add ponies). For additional reference, here is a page that Jon_Y had done some time ago with a similar goal and a very different implementation: http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/picker.php [1] Actually the JS on that page is incompatible with IE 8 which lacks some JS features that firefox has had since FF 1.5; I'm unable to test the page with IE 8 and it would be great if someone did and reported. -- Adrien Nader ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AlienVault Unified Security Management (USM) platform delivers complete security visibility with the essential security capabilities.
