X-Authentication-Warning: delorie.com: mail set sender to djgpp-bounces using -f Message-Id: <201412271422.sBREMAal026722@delorie.com> Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2014 08:34:31 +0200 From: Andris Pavenis To: djgpp-announce AT delorie DOT com Subject: ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of GCC-4.8.4 (DJGPP v2.04 only) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com This is announcement of DJGPP port of GCC-4.8.4 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-4.8.4 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) ada484b.zip GNU Ada compiler 4.8.4 for DJGPP V2 ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/ada484b.zip gfor484b.zip GNU Fortan 95 compiler 4.8.4 for DJGPP V2 ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/gfor484b.zip gcc484b.zip GNU GCC 4.8.4 for DJGPP V2 ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/gcc484b.zip gcc484s.zip GNU GCC 4.8.4 sources for DJGPP ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/gcc484s.zip gpp484b.zip GNU C++ Compiler 4.8.4 for DJGPP V2 ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/gpp484b.zip objc484b.zip GNU Objective C and Objective C++ compiler and runtime libraries v4.8.4 ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/objc484b.zip ada484d.zip Documentation for GNU Ada compiler ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/ada484d.zip gfor484d.zip Documentation for GNU Fortran compiler ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/gfor484d.zip gcc484d.zip Documentation for GNU C compiler ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/gcc484d.zip gcc484.README DJGPP specific readme file ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/README.gcc484 (it is identical with file gnu/gcc-4.84/readme.DJGPP in archives gcc484b.zip and gcc484s.zip) 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 21. Binaries are statically linked with GMP-6.0.0 (6.0.0a only contains documentation fixes), MPFR-3.1.2 and MPC-1.0.2 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). gcc484s2.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 gcc484s.zip is a side product of building gcc-4.8.4 Linux to DJGPP cross-compiler RPM packages. See source RPM for patches applied to original FSF version of GCC-4.8.4. You can find the same contents in the file ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.8.4/djcross-gcc-4.8.4.tar.bz2 Cross-compiler SRPM: ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.8.4/djcross-gcc-4.8.4-1ap.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 21 x86_64): GNU C compiler: ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.8.4/i686/djcross-gcc-4.8.4-1ap.i686.rpm GNU C++ compiler: ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.8.4/i686/djcross-gcc-c++-4.8.4-1ap.i686.rpm GNU Ada compiler: ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.8.4/i686/djcross-gcc-gnat-4.8.4-1ap.i686.rpm GNU Fortran compiler: ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.8.4/i686/djcross-gcc-gfortran-4.8.4-1ap.i686.rpm GNU Objective C and Objective C++ compilers: ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.8.4/i686/djcross-gcc-objc-4.8.4-1ap.i686.rpm Tools for GCC 4.8.4 (currently only fixincl, most users do not need this): ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms/djcross-gcc-4.8.4/i686/djcross-gcc-tools-4.8.4-1ap.i686.rpm Info files of GCC-4.8.4 (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-4.8.4/i686/djcross-gcc-info-4.8.4-1ap.i686.rpm Substitute i686 with x86_64 For x86_64 binary RPMs in the URLs above.

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). Andris Pavenis
