Can't compile psp toolchain on OSX.

daxtsu · Post by **daxtsu** » Sat Aug 02, 2008 12:11 pm

I'm on a Macbook Pro 1,1(1.83Ghz core duo, 2gb ram, 80gb hdd) running Leopard 10.5.4. When I run the toolchain.sh file, it won't compile the toolchain, giving an error:

Code: Select all

checking whether the C compiler &#40;gcc -g -O2  &#41; works... no
configure&#58; error&#58; installation or configuration problem&#58; C compiler cannot create executables.
make&#58; *** &#91;configure-binutils&#93; Error 1
make&#58; *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

But I have Apple's gcc already installed, and it works[tested a simple hello world console app in Xcode], so WTF is wrong?

Here's a pastebin showing all the output for those who are interested.

I used Macports to install everything but autogen:

Any idea? =s

It should compile without the autogen port install anyway. (I think I had trouble with that one too)

Any other ideas as to why the toolchain won't compile? Everything else is set correctly according to the tutorial. :(

Now I'm having another problem. I compiled the hello world sample(elf_template), and I don't see any text on the screen; it's just black. I'm using the above poster's already compiled SDK. I had a similar problem when I was downgrading my psp from OFW as well. Could the two be linked?

How does the firmware you are running on your psp affect your psp sdk install?

I know the pspsdk i uploaded is 100% functional. So you did something wrong. Also I dont think the pspsdk samples have been updated to work properly under the 3.xx kernel, so that may be your problem.

Post by **TyRaNiD** » Mon Aug 04, 2008 7:36 am

They work fine (except for a few very specific hack ones), but always best to be 100% sure and build any sample with: make BUILD_PRX=1 for > 3.0 kernels

Here's what I'm trying to execute on my Slim, and am on Firmware 3.90 M33-3:

You need a delay to read any text, and NEVER exit via return.

Code: Select all

    sceKernelDelayThread&#40;3*1000*1000&#41;;
    sceKernelExitGame&#40;&#41;;

    return 0;   /* never reaches here, again, just to suppress warning */

This just doesn't seem to want to work for me ~_~

It still just has a black screen with a crash. No makefile changes. What could I be missing here? Argh.

Read what TyRaNiD said, its almost fool proof!

I already have that in my makefile, do I need to run the PRX or something instead? :S

No. The difference is the EBOOT has the prx instead of the elf inside. You always run the EBOOT (unless using psplink). If you're getting this error while trying to use psplink, try not using psplink. Just run the EBOOT on the PSP and see what happens.

daxtsu · Post by **daxtsu** » Tue Aug 05, 2008 9:57 am

I haven't used PSPLink any this whole time, just fyi. :P

daxtsu · Post by **daxtsu** » Thu Aug 07, 2008 10:19 am

Anyone else? Should I post the compiled Eboot for you all to test? :S

Well for whatever reason, that compiler the other guy posted was pumping out bad eboots, so I put together a Linux VM for myself with the toolchain installed and it runs now. So I'm happy.

That's the best way to do it on Windows as well. :D
