This port is a shell for building the m68kgdb, m68kbinutils, m68kgcc and
|
|
|
|
|
m68knewlib ports in the proper sequence. Compilers for C and C++ are
|
|
|
|
|
generated; Objective-C is not currently supported.

The previous port used Cygnus's crosstree script and patches. This version
|
|
|
|
|
does not, since they have not released these items for more recent versions
|
|
|
|
|
of the binutils, gcc, and newlib releases. The compiler, debugger, and
|
|
|
|
|
binutils are stock GNU items, with newlib from Cygnus.

The new versions provide many desirable features and add support for other
|
|
|
|
|
processors as well, which we needed for our own work. It has been tested
|
|
|
|
|
with production code on one project, written in C. The C++ compiler has
|
|
|
|
|
been lightly tested on one trivial program. Feedback please!

|
|
|
|
gdb-4.17, binutils-2.9.2, gcc-2.8.1, newlib-1.8.1

This port is considered a development version, since some people are still
|
|
|
|
|
using the 2.7.2.3 based crossm68k.
