    Directions to compile GCC —Bill Delaney
   Does anyone have directions on how to compile GCC/LegOS. I am looking to get LegOS working on the BeOS but can not get the GCC cofigure command to work. The script ends explaining that my platform is not supported. I am not convinced that the (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

     Hi Bill, this page is captioned "Using and Porting GNU CC". It should give you an overview of the process. (URL) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

In one of the sections under this document there is a short paragraph explaining that cross compilers may not like having 32 bit ints (Like BeOS uses) turn into 16 bit ints (Like I bet the RCX uses) (...)

        Re: Directions to compile GCC —Jim Jackson
     Are you using gcc-2.95 or the earlier egcs? What's your host machine? I'm running an Intel Pentium (pre-MMX) and Linux and had to specify the additional parameter: --host=i586-pc-linux Not sure whether BeOS is supported where linux is specified (...)

         Re: Directions to compile GCC —Luis Villa
     (...) This may not be the case- the cross-compiler will try to compile something, but at least with the directions most of us use, there is no standard C library created and so the compiler thinks it doesn't work. The trick (then) is to use Markus's (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

        Re: Directions to compile GCC —Rossz Vámos-Wentworth
   I've also been struggling with building the cross compiler. I'm trying to create a DJGPP hosted version. Once I am successful, we will be able to use Markus's legOS on DOS/Windows as-is. Currently, I have to rewrite Makefile.Common, Makefile.Kernel, (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
