Hi, I've successfully installed gcc42 on this i386 machine, and it works fine for creating i386 binaries. Now I want to make a version which creates ppc binaries.
In an ideal world, I'd like one which works in the same way as Apple's gcc, allowing the "-arch ppc" and "-arch i386" flags, but I understand that this would be difficult to achieve from GCC mainline, so I'm happy to have two separate compiler builds, perhaps with a different prefix, if there is no smarter solution. So, is there a straightforward way to have two versions of gcc42 from macports installed on this same machine, one targetting i386 and one ppc? In a sense, one is a cross-compiler, with host=i386-apple-darwin8, target=powerpc-apple-darwin8. What does the "universal" variant of gcc42 do? I'm not interested in having compiler binaries for ppc, just in creating ppc output from the compiler, so I suspect this is not for me. Is there anything I need to consider when targetting Mac OS 10.3.9 with a compiler built in this way? I'm aware of "MACOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3" ... do I also need --with-sysroot=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.9.sdk or anything else similar? Isn't Mac OS X.3.9 powerpc-apple-darwin7, rather than darwin8? Does this matter? Pointers to relevant documentation would be welcome! Thanks, -- Bill Gallafent. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
