[comp.sys.atari.st] GCC for MinixST now available for FTP

bammi@dsrgsun.ces.cwru.edu (Jwahar R. Bammi) (11/15/88)

My mailbox has been overflowing ever since this morning. At last count
i got 43 requests for Gcc for MinixST. It is available for anaonymous
FTP from dsrgsun.ces.cwru.edu (129.22.16.2). Its in the directory
 ~ftp/pub/minix (Note: there is also a directory ~ftp/pub/atari, that
also contains gcc stuff, but that is for TOS not Minix). I got three
request to post it on the net from people who do not have FTP access. I have
offered to copy the files onto floppies for them, instead of flooding the
net (and the subsequent re-posts). If you do not have FTP access
please send me Email and we can arrange floppies.

PS: Here is the README file

Here is the GCC distribution for MinixST. Only context diffs are provided
where possible. The same source may be used to make a unix (only 
SunOS 3.5  tested) hosted Gcc based cross development system, by using
the appropriate makefiles (provided). Further, GCC may be used in two
modes, 16 bit integer or 32 bit integer mode. The driver program `gcc'
will pick up the correct library objects appropriate to the mode. The
mode is selected by the presence/absence of the `-mshort' command line
arguement to `gcc'. Please note that even while linking 16 bit integer
object files using `gcc' or `gcc-ld' the `-mshort' flag should be used to
link in the 16 bit library objects.

			** ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS **

John Dunning (jrd@stony-brook.scrc.symbolics.com) did the hardest
part, the port to atari/TOS. BIG thanks to him. Frans Meulenbroeks
(meulenbr@cst.prl.philips.nl) contributed a lot of info and sample
code for minixST. Thank you very much.

This distribution contains the following subdirectories:

bin/		Atari Minix executables
lib/		Library Object files
include/	Include files (diffs + additional files)
src/		All the src diffs and additional files

	bison/  Frans Meulenbroeks diffs for bison
	dir/    Doug Gwyns portable directory package
	etc/	Dhrytone stuff
	gas/	Diffs + additional files for gcc-as
	gcc/	Diffs + additional files for for gcc, gcc-cpp, gcc-cc1
	lib/    Diffs + additional files for Gcc MinixSt library

util/		Source for gcc-ld, gcc-ar and gcc-nm

	Each subdirectory contains a file `README.MINIX' that gives further
details about the subdirectory contents.

All the files needed to use the compiler are provided in the distribution,
except the include files, for which the diffs are provided. You can recreate
all the include files by applying the diffs in the include subdirectory
to the include files that came with minixSt.

	If you want to recreate all the sources you will need

	- gcc V1.30 distribution
	- gas V1.25 distribution
	- Atari Minix sources
	- Latest Bison distribution
	all additional files and diffs are provided in the distribution.
