Author: Krystian Bacławski

Short description: m68k-amigaos gcc / binutils toolchain build script.

Overview:

m68k-amigaos-toolchain provides you a shell script that builds M68k AmigaOS 3.x) toolchain in your un*x-like environment. Build process should produce following set of tools that targets m68k-amigaos platform:

• gcc 2.95.3
• g++ 2.95.3
• libstdc++ 2.10
• binutils 2.9.1 (assembler, linker, etc.)
• libnix 2.1 (standard ANSI/C library replacement for AmigaOS)
• libm 5.4 (provides math library implementation for non-FPU Amigas)
• AmigaOS headers & libraries (for AmigaOS 3.9)
• ixemul.library 48.2
• vbcc 0.9b + vclib
• vasm 1.5c
• vlink 0.14a

Note: Patches are welcome!

Prerequisites

Installed in your system

• GNU gcc 4.x
• GNU flex 2.5.x
• GNU make 3.x
• lha
• perl 5.10

As listed in bootstrap.conf file:

• sources from GNU project:
  • gcc 2.95.3
  • binutils 2.9.1
  • bison 1.35
  • gawk 1.3.8
• Amiga specific sources & binaries:
  • libnix 2.1
  • libm 5.4
  • AmigaOS NDK 3.9
  • sfdc 1.4
  • libamiga-bin
• VBCC related sources & binaries:

How to build?

Note: Well… you should have basic understanding of unix console environment, really.

1. Download sources (use fetch.sh script in archives directory).
2. Run bootstrap.sh script (with --prefix option to specify where to install the toolchain).
3. Wait for the result :-)

Note: If the build process fails, please write me an e-mail. I'll try to help out. Don't forget to put into e-mail as much data about your environment as possible!

Tested on

Following platforms were tested:

• Ubuntu 10.04 32-bit (gcc 4.4.3)
• MacOS X 10.7.5 (MacPorts gcc47 4.7.3_0)

But I do as much as possible to make the toolchain portable among Un*x-like environments.
