Hi, I have a doubt in using GNU assembler. I have powerpc-eabi cross toolchain with me. I have to use powerpc-eabi-as assembler on a assembly file which is written to be compatible with Diab (powerpc cross) assembler. My GNU assembler issues few errors in assembler directives, since the syntax differs between Diab and GNU assembly language. For e.g, the .set directive has following syntax in GNU assembly language: .set SYMBOL, value whereas, in Diab assembly language, .set directive has 2 different syntax: .set SYMBOL, value # -> the symbol may not be redefined later SYMBOL: .set value # -> if redefinition is required I could see in GNU assembler manual that for HPPA target, the syntax of .set directive is SYMBOL: .set value # (same as Diab assembly syntax) Is there any option to make GNU assembler to understand the above syntax for powerpc target?
