Please can any one tell me how to bulid gcc newer version for
generating code for i960MC processor.
Newer than which GCC version?
is there any switch to generate coed for i960MC or i will have to
build it first
for target i960.
The switch seems to be '-mmc' for i960MC code generation.... As
default for instance
a gcc-3.2.3 for 'i960-coff' produces code for something 'generic' but
multilibs for
'soft-float' and 'ld64' (whatever this then means) will be produced but
no 'i960MC'
optimized libraries without first patching the GCC sources to do this...
Right now i am using Linux i686.
Building cross GCCs on Linux i686 should be a piece of cake...
And also tell me whether it's possible to generate i960Mc code
for language Ada95 or it is only possible for language "C" ???????
I'm not a specialist in Ada but I would expect this language requiring
the target to be a
"system" like "Linux", "VxWorks", "RTEMS" etc. with a "file system" in
it, so that things
like 'dirent.h' would exist among its target headers. An embedded
target like 'i960-coff'
isn't this kind of "system target" !
So before you will tell your target type, not only the CPU type, it is
totally vain to discuss
about any "how to build a cross GCC for the i960-system-x" issues. What
I told being a
"piece of cake", was producing a cross GCC for 'i960-coff' with the
gcc-3.2.3 sources. But
the 'i960-wrs-vxworks' target can be totally another thing :-(
