-Building egcs-1.0
-
-Now that egcs is configured, you are ready to build the compiler and
-runtime libraries.
-
-We highly recommend that egcs be built using gnu-make; other
-versions make work, then again they might not. To be safe build with gnu-make.
-
-Building a native compiler
-For a native build issue the command "make bootstrap". This will build
-the entire egcs compiler system, which includes the following steps:
-
-
- Build host tools necessary to build the compiler such as texinfo, bison,
- gperf.
-
- Build target tools for use by the compiler such as gas, gld, and binutils.
-
- Perform a 3-stage bootstrap of the compiler.
-
- Perform a comparison test of the stage2 and stage3 compilers.
-
- Build runtime libraries using the stage3 compiler from the previous step.
-
-
-If you are short on disk space you might consider "make bootstrap-lean"
-instead. This is identical to "make bootstrap" except that object files
-from the stage1 and stage2 of the 3-stage bootstrap of the compiler are
-deleted as soon as they are no longer needed.
-
-Building a cross compiler
-
-We recommend reading the crossgcc FAQ for information about building
-cross compilers.
-"ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/embedded/crossgcc/FAQ-0.8.1"
-
-For a cross build, issue the command "make cross", which performs the
-following steps:
-
- Build host tools necessary to build the compiler such as texinfo, bison,
- gperf.
-
- Build target tools for use by the compiler such as gas, gld, and binutils.
-
- Build the compiler (single stage only).
-
- Build runtime libraries using the compiler from the previous step.
-
-
-Note that if an error occurs in any step the make process will exit.
