./toolchain.sh -g is pathological before ./toolchain.sh -n

Post by duffy399 »

I had occasion to run the toolchain piecemeal, first running
./toolchain.sh -binutils
to more expeditiously check something I had changed in just that area.

Then I decided not to run ./toolchain.sh in its entirety, so I kicked off
./toolchain.sh -gcc
since BUILD_GCC is listed next within the toolchain.sh file.

Turns out: that's not healthy. It causes configure to output lots of wrong settings, as illustrated by this diff of config.cache
[I am including the diff in this post, so that maybe google will help someone else who hits this.]

./toolchain.sh -gcc
is simply pathological if run before
./toolchain.sh -newlib

The real resolution of the problem is to rerun
./toolchain.sh
in its entirety, or perhaps we'll in future have a toolchain.sh that doesn't do the GCC (C++) section before the INSTALL PSPSDK HEADERS section. Adding a clause as follows (like the one that is already present for NEWLIB), which would say

## GCC (C++) depends on PSPSDK headers, so if it's being
## built then make sure that PSPSDK is being built.
if test "$BUILD_GCC" = "1" ; then
BUILD_PSPSDK=1
fi

But a more robust resolution is probably called for.
./toolchain.sh -newlib
itself fails at /tmp/pspdev/pspsdk/src/libc/cxx.cpp
because there is no psp-g++ in existence yet, at that point.

The resolution that I used, after this problem, is to remove the pathological build-psp-c++
rm -r /tmp/pspdev/gcc-4.0.2/build-psp-c++
and then
./toolchain.sh -newlib
until that fails at /tmp/pspdev/pspsdk/src/libc/cxx.cpp
then I carved portions of ./toolchain.sh into what I call
./startatg++.sh

by eliding the DOWNLOAD and PATCH and BINUTILS and GCC and PSPSDK HEADERS and NEWLIB sections, so that it then just has

## Create and enter the temp directory.
mkdir -p "$BUILDDIR"; cd "$BUILDDIR"
