From: kh AT wg DOT icl DOT co DOT uk (Kevin Hughes) Subject: egcs - the story so far 22 Nov 1997 02:14:17 -0800 Message-ID: <01BCF697.4BB94960.cygnus.gnu-win32@rodney.wg.icl.co.uk> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit To: "Gnuwin95 (E-mail)" Following a problem with the standard gcc I picked up the egcs version of the gcc compiler as ported by Mumit Khan [http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32] I installed it over the top of the existing compiler and attempted to compiler my software. I had the same problem - overflowing the reloc table, so I fixed the problem in the source by splitting up the file into 6 - better structure too. I stuck with the new compiler and managed to compile all my source (> 300k lines). When it came to linking I had problems due a bad LIBRARY_PATH but once that was sorted out great. The problem is it wont run. So I tried the simple "hello world" and you guessed it failed. Has anyone used the gnuwin32 egcs compiler successfully - and if so what is the correct set up. Many thanks Kevin - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
