-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-1068 2011-02-04 19:31:10 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : pcc Product : Fedora 13 Version : 0.9.9 Release : 0.4.20110203cvs.fc13 URL : http://pcc.ludd.ltu.se/ Summary : The Portable C Compiler Description : The compiler is based on the original Portable C Compiler by Stephen C. Johnson, written in the late 70's. Even though much of the compiler has been rewritten, some of the basics still remain. PCC debuted in Unix Version 7 and replaced the DMR compiler (Dennis Ritchie's original C compiler) in both System V and the BSD 4.x releases. Some history about pcc is in the A History of UNIX before Berkeley: UNIX Evolution: 1975-1984 and in the Evolution of C. About 50% of the frontend code and 80% of the backend code has been rewritten. Most stuff is written by Anders Magnusson, with the exception of the data-flow analysis part and the SSA conversion code which is written by Peter A Jonsson, and the Mips port that were written as part of a project by undergraduate students at Luleå University of Technology (LTU). Caution: the compiler is still undergoing heavy development. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Update to newest snapshot, fixing issues e.g. with inclusion of limits.h. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Feb 3 2011 Jussi Lehtola <[email protected]> - 0.9.9-0.4.20110203cvs - Update to 20110203. * Fri Nov 19 2010 Jussi Lehtola <[email protected]> - 0.9.9-0.4.101119cvs - Update to 20101119. x86_64 works now. - Added possibility in the spec file to build pcc with itself. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
