Subject:	ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of GCC-4.9.2 (DJGPP v2.04 only)
Reply-To:	djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is announcement of DJGPP port of GCC-4.9.2

GCC used to stand for the GNU C Compiler, but since the
compiler supports several other languages aside from C,
it now stands for the GNU Compiler Collection.

**********************************************************************
* WARNING: only port for DJGPP 2.04 development versions is provided *
**********************************************************************

Warning: DJGPP port of binutils-2.22 or newer is recommended.
          Version 2.19 and 2.20 may work but are not tested
          It is however recommended to use binutils-2.22
          or newer

Use of DJGPP port of binutils-2.22 or newer is however required for
building gcc-4.9.2 for DJGPP.

=======================================
Build for current development version of DJGPP (djdev204) is
available
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/
and mirror sites (see http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/getting.html)

Binaries are built and tested mostly under Windows Vista Business (SP2)

========================================
Build for DJGPP 2.03p2 is not and most likely will not be available.
Using binaries for DJGPP v2.04 with DJGPP v2.03p2 is not tested
at all and is likely not to work properly especially for C++
and Ada

Source RPMS needed for building Linux to DJGPP cross-compiler
=============================================================

Binary RPMs for both i686 and x86_64 are available. I built these binary RPMs
in CentOS 5.11 chroot under Fedora 20. Binaries are statically linked with GMP-6.0.0
(6.0.0a only contains documentation fixes), MPFR-3.1.2 and MPC-1.0.1 to avoid
unnecessary dependencies and increase compatibility with other
Linux distributions. For example they are expected to work without
problems in other reasonably recent Linux distributions (like Fedora, RHEL-5 and newer,
etc)

gcc492s2.zip is no more provided as patching GCC using DJGPP tools
has not been tested and even attempted by me for a long time.
DJGPP source file gcc492s.zip is a side product of building
gcc-4.9.2 Linux to DJGPP cross-compiler RPM packages. See source
RPM for patches applied to original FSF version of GCC-4.9.2.

Cross-compiler SRPM:

ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.9.2/djcross-gcc-4.9.2-1ap.src.rpm

Cross-compiler binary RPMs (built under CentOS 5.11 i386, are expected to work on other
recent enough RPM based Linux distributions, I myself have tried Fedora 19 x86_64):

     GNU C compiler:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.9.2/i686/djcross-gcc-4.9.2-1ap.i686.rpm

     GNU C++ compiler:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.9.2/i686/djcross-gcc-c++-4.9.2-1ap.i686.rpm

     GNU Ada compiler:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.9.2/i686/djcross-gcc-gnat-4.9.2-1ap.i686.rpm

     GNU Fortran compiler:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.9.2/i686/djcross-gcc-gfortran-4.9.2-1ap.i686.rpm

     GNU Objective C and Objective C++ compilers:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.9.2/i686/djcross-gcc-objc-4.9.2-1ap.i686.rpm

     Tools for GCC 4.9.2 (currently only fixincl, most users do not need this):
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.9.2/i686/djcross-gcc-tools-4.9.2-1ap.i686.rpm

     Info files of GCC-4.9.2 (a separate RPM file as these files are expected to
     conflict with system compiler info files, but You do not need to install them...):
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.9.2/i686/djcross-gcc-info-4.9.2-1ap.i686.rpm

Substitute i686 with x86_64 For x86_64 binary RPMs in the URLs above.

You need also cross binutils (choose required binary RPM file or build from SRPM)
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-binutils-2.24-1ap.src.rpm
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-binutils-2.24-1ap.i686.rpm
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-binutils-2.24-1ap.x86_64.rpm

You need also DJGPP development libraries, include files and some tools (eg. stubify)
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcrx-2.04pre_20140410-19ap.i686.rpm
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcrx-2.04pre_20140410-19ap.x86_64.rpm
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcrx-2.04pre_20140410-19ap.src.rpm
      (2014/04/10 CVS version)
Note that one can use
      ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcrx-2.04pre-5.src.rpm
for bootstrapping (one may need to replace djlsr204.zip in it with newer file generated from CVS 
sources)



=========================================

See
     http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9
for more information about GCC-4.9.2 and about changes in comparison
with earlier versions

Also see file gnu/gcc-4.92/readme.DJGPP (from gcc492b.zip and
gcc492s.zip) or
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gcc492.README for more
information about this port.

There is also my web page about DJGPP port of GCC

http://www.iki.fi/andris.pavenis/djgpp/gcc

I cannot promise however, that I'll update it very often.
However new versions may appear there earlier (including ones not available
from ftp://ftp.delorie.com).
