Re: Newbie crosstool problem

You probably need to go back to a gcc in the 3.4 era. Gcc 4.x is much more
demanding and frequently fails on code that has only been compiled on 3.4.
because it is much less forgiving -Clark

Hi,

I have a SUSE 10.3 host running on 32 bit x86 core and I am trying to
use crosstool to build a cross compiler for arm-linux.
Idownload the crosstool-0.43 archive and unpacked it. I edited my demo-
arm9tdmi shell script to look like this:

#!/bin/sh
# This script has one line for each known working toolchain
# for this architecture. Uncomment the one you want.
# Generated by generate-demo.pl from buildlogs/all.dats.txt

set -ex
TARBALLS_DIR=$HOME/downloads
RESULT_TOP=/opt/crosstool
export TARBALLS_DIR RESULT_TOP
GCC_LANGUAGES="c,c++,java"
export GCC_LANGUAGES

# Really, you should do the mkdir before running this,
# and chown /opt/crosstool to yourself so you don't need to run as
root.
mkdir -p $RESULT_TOP

echo Done.

and ran it.

After a lot of downloads and building I eventually get an error:

which -a gcc return:

/usr/bin/gcc

and gcc --version | head -1 returns:

gcc (GCC) 4.2.1 (SUSE Linux)

Can somebody point me in the right direction please?

TIA,

Richard.
