The 20110716 release of mspgcc is now available at the mspgcc project: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mspgcc/files/mspgcc/mspgcc-20110716.tar.bz2
This package is the preferred format for most users: it consists of patches to be applied to upstream unmodified distributions of binutils, gcc, and gdb, and references to the corresponding versions of msp430mcu and msp430-libc. You can examine the individual patches through the git browse facility at: http://mspgcc.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=mspgcc/mspgcc;a=tree;h=6003679b98360e99e5f316eca471dc771e68ce57;hb=9e5bc877abbd29443bc0467dd3acf118d75feb6d Change logs are present in the prolog of each patch. Each component is independently versioned; the mspgcc release will generally be the same as the most recent release of any component package. This release comprises: msp430-binutils-2.21.1-20110716 (NEW: basis is 2.21.1) msp430-gcc-4.5.3-20110706 (NEW: basis is 4.5.3, MPY enhancements) msp430-gdb-7.2-20110103 msp430mcu-20110613 msp430-libc-20110612 Downstream packagers, please get it and "dew yore thang". Absent boneheaded mistakes in the packaging, this will be a stable release, and mspgcc development will advance to the 4.6.x branch for future enhancements. What this means is that "mspgcc-YYYYMMDD" will progress to new versions of upstream tools, and if there are problems with (for example) the gcc 4.5.3 port there will be individual patch file updates for the affected tool. Non-packagers: Although basic instructions are included, I am unable to provide how-to support for building the toolchain. If you know how to build and install your own version of gcc, you'll probably be fine. Questions and discussion can be on this list, but please report all toolchain bugs on the mspgcc bug tracker at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=42303&atid=432701 Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AppSumo Presents a FREE Video for the SourceForge Community by Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology on "Lean Startup Secrets Revealed."
