According to Vinay Bannai: > I am trying to find out if there is a gcc compiler available on FreeBSD > which cross-compiles for the ELF format. Any other suggestions are also > welcome. The stock gcc in /usr/src can be recompiled to emit ELF asm files although you need the latest binutils 2.8.1 as well. You'll need the ELFKit from ftp.polstra.com. Read the archive for freebsd-hackers & freebsd-current as well, we just had several discussions about that :-) The best way is to use the ELFkit and egcs/pgcc as cross compiler. Works wonders here: /opt/elf: drwxr-xr-x 2 roberto staff 1024 Jan 27 00:14 bin/ drwxr-xr-x 5 roberto staff 512 Dec 25 00:05 i386-unknown-freebsdelf/ drwxr-xr-x 3 roberto staff 512 Dec 28 20:14 include/ drwxr-xr-x 2 roberto staff 2048 Jan 27 00:14 info/ drwxr-xr-x 3 roberto staff 2560 Jan 27 00:14 lib/ drwxr-xr-x 2 roberto staff 512 Dec 24 22:05 libexec/ drwxr-xr-x 3 roberto staff 512 Dec 25 00:01 man/ elf-cc -v Reading specs from /opt/elf/lib/gcc-lib/i386-unknown-freebsdelf/pgcc-2.91.05/specs gcc version pgcc-2.91.05 980122 (gcc-2.8.0 release) You can follow most of the instructions in ELFkit's README file although the part about patching is obsolete. egcs/pgcc: <http://www.cygnus.com/egcs/>; & <http://www.goof.com/pcg/>; -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 3.0-CURRENT #54: Mon Jan 26 20:29:17 CET 1998
