Standalone IOP tools for 3.2.2?

Post by mrbrown »

It's possible to build binutils 2.14 and GCC 3.2.2 for IOP with just --prefix=iop, correct? I just want to be sure before I jump into something.

Well, it is possible to compile binutils and gcc with --prefix=iop, but it won't do any good. You'd rather want --target=iop :P

Beware though: you have to install binutils before configuring gcc, otherwise iop-gcc will use ld and as instead of iop-ld and iop-as.

--edit--

on a side note though, you can mix up binutils and gcc directories together. I've got some scripts laying my harddrive that does that. It permits a direct build of both binutils and gcc, and the "links" between iop-gcc and iop-{ld,as} will be done directly.
