Downloading GCC
|
|
|
|
GCC is distributed via CVS and FTP tarballs compressed with gzip or
|
|
bzip2. It is possible to download a full distribution or specific
|
|
components.
|
|
|
|
Please refer to our [1]releases web page for information on how to
|
|
obtain GCC.
|
|
|
|
The full distribution includes the C, C++, Objective-C, Fortran, Java,
|
|
and Chill compilers. The full distribution also includes runtime
|
|
libraries for C++, Objective-C and Fortran. In the future the GNU
|
|
compiler testsuites will be included in the full distribution.
|
|
|
|
If you choose to download specific components, you must download the
|
|
core gcc distribution plus any language specific distributions you
|
|
wish to use. The core distribution includes the C language front-end
|
|
as well as the shared components. Each language has a tarball which
|
|
includes the language front-end as well as the language runtime (when
|
|
appropriate).
|
|
|
|
Unpack the core distribution as well as any language specific
|
|
distributions in the same directory.
|
|
|
|
If you also intend to build binutils (either to upgrade an existing
|
|
installation or for use in place of the corresponding tools of your
|
|
OS), unpack the binutils distribution either in the same directory or
|
|
a separate one. In the latter case, add symbolic links to any
|
|
components of the binutils you intend to build alongside the compiler
|
|
(bfd, binutils, gas, gprof, ld, opcodes,...) to the directory
|
|
containing the GCC sources.
