I have done my exam at University, and now I'm again here "active" and kicking.. ;) Now, the problem is: what to do? I'm trying to build my personal toolchain. So I have compiled binutils (latest version) and I'll try to compile egcs tomorrow. Maybe it's a better compiler, but it's more an experiment to see what it says when I try to compile it. The problem is: I haven't an Ultra. So someone must test bins for me (we can compare what my toolchain gives and what _you_ obtain from your toolchain). Ok, this is not a tecnical prob, the tecnical ones are: 1) I have compiled binutils with sparc64-elf, is this right? Have I to use sparc-aout? 2) I'll try to compile egcs with same flags in 1) My idea is to have 2 toolchains. The first one to test "compiler" and the second one to use it on code. We don't know much about egcs/gcc/etc. so I thought to test compiler/toolchain on a usable platform (Solaris). This mean the first toolchain (I called it SolarSystem) must be used _only_ to test the compiler, and the second one (EatIt) must be used to do our test when SolarSystem works. Now, I don't know if we can build Sparc64 bins under solaris, and what to do to build the right toolchain. About test programs. I'm preparing some test programs. The first is something like "do-nothing". No output, no input. After that I'll do more complicated programs (math progs, and input/output, etc...). Suggestions?
