Hi I use an intel macbook with snow leopard (OS X 10.6). I have installed the latest version of XCode (3.2.1). I haven't installed any other programms or tools. I want to develop code for arm7 mikrocontroller. I'm unable to build gcc for the target system. I had no problems with OSX 10.5. Here is what I did: compiled and installed binutils to /usr/local/arm compiled and installed gmp to /usr/local/arm compiled and installed mpfr to /usr/local/arm I read there are problems with correct system identification with snow leopard. Therefore I added information about the host system: ../configure --host=x86_64-apple-darwin10 .... After that I tried to compile gcc-4.4.2 with target=arm-elf: ../configure --host=x86_64-apple-darwin10 --target=arm-elf --enable-interwork --enable-multilib --enable-languages="c,c++" --with-newlib --with-gmp=/usr/local/arm --with-mpfr=/usr/local/arm --build=x86_64-apple-darwin10 Unfortunately gcc fails to build. I get this error during make: checking for long... no checking size of long... 0 checking for int... no checking size of int... 0 checking for short... no checking size of short... 0 checking for char... no checking size of char... 0 checking for type equivalent to int8_t... configure: error: no 8-bit type /Users/tilolutz/build/gcc-4.4.2/libstdc++-v3/configure: line 116577: exit: please: numeric argument required /Users/tilolutz/build/gcc-4.4.2/libstdc++-v3/configure: line 116577: exit: please: numeric argument required make[1]: *** [configure-target-libstdc++-v3] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 I read the following threads: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2009-08/msg02234.html http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41180 without --host I get exactly the same error message. What can I do to get gcc work? Please tell me when I should supply additional information or files. Cheers, Tilo
