Message-Id: <201707061612.v66GCljd007867@delorie.com> To: djgpp-announce AT delorie DOT com From: "Andris Pavenis (andris DOT pavenis AT gmail DOT com) [via djgpp-announce AT delorie DOT com]" Subject: ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of gcc-6.4.0 Date: Thu, 6 Jul 2017 12:09:04 +0300 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Content-Language: en-US This is announcement of an update of DJGPP port of GCC-6.4.0 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. See https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-announce/2016/msg00004.html for original announcement of gcc-6.4.0 release ********************************************************************* * WARNING: This GCC port is for DJGPP v2.05 * * Build for DJGPP 2.03p2 is not and will not be available. * ********************************************************************** 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-6.4.0 for DJGPP. New in this release: * C++: std::experimental::filesystem is enabled (corresponding library is built and renamed from libstdc++fs.a to libstdcfs.a to avoid filename conflict in case when LFN support is not available or is disabled) Note that currently latest GCC version for DJGPP is gcc-7.1.0. ======================================= Build for current stable version of DJGPP (djdev205) is available ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/ and mirror sites (see http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/getting.html) gcc640b.zip GNU GCC 6.4.0 for DJGPP V2 ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gcc640b.zip gcc640d.zip Documentation for GNU C compiler ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gcc640d.zip gpp640b.zip GNU C++ Compiler 6.4.0 for DJGPP V2 ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gpp640b.zip gfor640b.zip GNU Fortan 95 compiler 6.4.0 for DJGPP V2 ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gfor640b.zip gcc640s.zip GNU GCC 6.4.0 sources for DJGPP ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gcc640s.zip objc640b.zip GNU Objective C and Objective C++ compiler and runtime libraries v6.4.0 ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/objc640b.zip gfor640d.zip Documentation for GNU Fortran compiler ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gfor640d.zip ada640b.zip GNU Ada compiler ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/ada640b.zip ada640d.zip Documentation for GNU Ada compiler ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/ada640d.zip Binaries are built and tested mostly under Windows Vista Business (SP2) 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 6.9 chroot under Fedora 25. Binaries are statically linked with GMP-6.1.2 MPFR-3.1.5 and MPC-1.0.3 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-6 and newer, etc) gcc640s2.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 gcc640s.zip is a side product of building gcc-6.4.0 Linux to DJGPP cross-compiler RPM packages. See source RPM for patches applied to original FSF version of GCC-6.4.0.
