Neither of us had much luck getting it to run. I think one problem is a heavy dependency on Bash. Things might of improved as the last time I looked there were a lot of Windows patches going into it. Mercurial does have some git support which I haven't looked into yet. Dave

GCC 3.4.6 build available

Hi All, Anyone who also reads the Mozilla OS2 newsgroup may be aware that I've been exploring GCC 3.4.6 in recent weeks. Finally, I have something that I feel is ready for public consumption! The binaries can be downloaded from: http://download.smedley.info/gcc-3.4.6-os2-20080912.zip (7,933,439 bytes) There is currently no sample gccenv.cmd included in the package, but a setmozenv.cmd based on the one for GCC 3.3.5 is available from http://download.smedley.info/setmozenv_gcc346.cmd Note that the gcc .zip installs itself in u:\usr\local\bin and won't interfere with an existing gcc 3.3.5 install in u:\usr\bin I've successfully built a bunch of stuff with this, so I'm very interested in any feedback! -- -- Cheers, Paul.

Was that intentional? Dave

Was that intentional? While downloading I was already wondering why the ZIP is only ~7MB while Knut's packages were close to 40 MB. There seems to be a lot missing, not only most files under include/ (where only the c++ subdir is there) but also many of the executables in bin/ (I tried to copy them over from GCC 3.3.5 I think that should work for most of them), but then many things from lib/ are missing, too, like lib/bfd2E.dll, lib/libbfd*, and lib/crt0*, etc. GCC 3.3.5 had two directories i386-pc-os2-elf and i386-pc-os2-emx. Not if they were used for OMF stuff at all, I just notice that they are missing from this package... Paul, I hope that your build produced most of them and the just didn't end up in the package? Do I need to set an extra path to get the compiler to find some of its sub-programs, like cc1plus? Finally, comparing the output of gcc -v of Knut's last 3.3.5 build and yours, I see that Knut set of lot more parameters. Are they not needed any more? Stuff like --enable-threads=os2 --enable-shared=libgcc,bfd,opcodes Just curious.(Continue reading)

Was that intentional? Yes.... The headers are part of libc - not gcc. The way I've currently packaged things, this is an addon to an existing GCC setup. ie if one has ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/GCC-3.3.5-csd3.zip installed into \usr - gcc 3.4.6 then ges installed into \usr\local In the setmozenv_gcc346.cmd - the following changes were necessary to ensure the newer gcc libs/includes were found first in /usr/local/*, then it defaults to the libc stuff in /usr: -'SET(Continue reading)

Oh yes, it does. Thanks for helping us blind people. Now I see that you
also added the libexec\gcc\i386-pc-os2-emx\3.4.6 dir to your PATH to get
the compiler to find its preprocessors.

Sorry - I guess in the excitement of posting the announcement, I wasn't very explict in how to actually get it working. It also seems that in the process of fixing linking of objects that use _System, I broke linking of c++ objects - which is why xul.dll is failing when building mozilla. My c++ testcase Scribus, which was working previously is now broken too at the linking stage. For normal C code, things seem to be working pretty well.(Continue reading)
