Talk:Toolchain

From iPodLinux

i know a couple of weeks ago i put up a link to the 3.4.3 arm-elf toolchain for windows, but that didn't work for me. now there is another one posted on the page for windows users. is it 3.4.3, or is it the old toolchain that will not compile podzilla 2?

It's the 2.95 toolchain - will NOT work for pz2. If anyone has the 3.4.3 link, please put it on there... — Josh (talk) 21:45, 24 Nov 2005 (CST)

command not found ?

i have downloaded cygwin and arm-uclinux-tools-cygwin-20060116.tar.bz2. then i have extract it with

# tar -C / -xvjf arm-uclinux-tools-cygwin-20060116.tar.bz2

now everything is extracted in /usr/local/ as it should be. But if i want to run

# arm-elf-gcc blah.c -o blah -elf2flt

bash tells me

# bash: arm-elf-gcc: command not found

can anyone tell me what i've done wrong?

i found the answer. After extracting i've to enter this:

(cygwin)

export PATH=/usr/local/arm-uclinux-elf-tools/bin:$PATH

(linux)

export PATH=/usr/local/arm-uclinux-tools2/bin:$PATH

What is meant by "HOST"?

In the section about using both toolchains on the same system, you say to set HOST appropriately. But I have no idea what you mean by that. Is that a environment variable? Or is it a variable in each makefile? Or what? For example, I've been doing work with both toolchains before and I can't remember having encountered this HOST, and it does not exist in my env either.

Any toolchain for OS X-Intel?

Hi!

I think a lot of us have bought one of those fancy new Intel Macs, but we cannot compile anything for our iPods :-( Any progress on an OS X-Intel toolchain?

courtc created one on my Intel Mac. I could just put the entire folder into an archive and put that up. You'd have to create any symlinks manually then, though. Tempel 12:46, 14 Jun 2006 (CDT)

Thanks, That would be great! It's a teporary solution but i'm pretty tired of running to my Linux computer every time i have to recompile something...
