Hi All,
I am trying to compile gpc-20011202 on a new cygwin install with gcc ver 2.95.3-5 Does anyone have the diffs for this code tree?
If you are brave, try the gcc sources on the Cygwin ftp site - else use the pristine gcc-2.95.x sources.
Should the diffs for 2.95.3 work?
Yes.
I tried running mkdiff with that gcc ver but it errors out.
Why are you running mkdiff?
When I try compiling gpc with 2.95.2, the patch/configure works fine but the actual compile generates a compiler error and prompts me to contact GNU and submit a bug!
It might help if you gave us an idea of what the errors were ;)
Would this matter if I am trying to compile 2.95.2 with the gcc2.95.3-5 that comes with cygwin?
No.
OK, I have confused everyone probably :-) Short answer... How do I run/compile gpc with cygwin with the above gcc ver?
extract gcc sources, extract gpc sources, patch gcc sources with the appropriate gpc patch, ./configure make install
