To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com Date: Fri, 03 Oct 1997 10:37:11 PDT Reply-To: andrewc AT rosemail DOT rose DOT hp DOT com Precedence: bulk Hello - I have finally gotten a djgpp build of egcs. I have been fairly time limited recently, and will continue to be in the future, so I have not tested this compiler very thoroughly. I know that it can recompile allegro, and that the example programs compile OK and run. I honestly spent weeks (probably only 20 hours total though) hacking with the source code and with the configure/makefiles just to get the stupid thing to build. This is very different that the pre-egcs snapshots, where I could do a complete build in under 30 minutes. That stated, all I have to show for my efforts is just the base C compiler and libgcc. I have the c++ parser also, but not the supporting libraries (egcs comes with several additional packages beyond gcc), which I believe are needed. There is also a g77 in the distribution but I haven't played with it either (although it tried to build itself before it would build libgcc). I am also unsuccessful at getting the ld/collect2 front end built (for repository stuff), and am not sure if it will work anyway. Lastly, I didn't enable the Haifa scheduler. That stated - Is anyone interested in me putting this up on the pgcc web site?? I don't have performance numbers on it, but I suspect it to be slightly better. I know it has better AMD support (~10% speed increase).
