Canadian cross of GDB with Static build set?

Canadian cross of GDB with Static build set?

[Per Arnold Blaasmo]

Hi,
I have been experimenting with som canadian builds and trying to build GDB.

After adding builds of ncurses and expat on the host-platform I get
error when doing a static build (CT_GDB_CROSS_STATIC=y).
In the script file 200-gdb.sh I find this code:

    if [ "${CT_GDB_CROSS}" = "y" ]; then
        :
        :
        if [ "${CT_GDB_CROSS_STATIC}" = "y" ]; then
            CC_for_gdb="gcc -static"
            LD_for_gdb="ld -static"
        fi
       :
       :
    fi

But this finds the 'gcc' installed natively on the build-platform, and
that gives errors.
If I change this to be '${CT_HOST_PREFIX}gcc -static' and
'${CT_HOST_PREFIX}ld -static' it seems to work OK.

So, should these lines be changed to:
        if [ "${CT_GDB_CROSS_STATIC}" = "y" ]; then
            CC_for_gdb="${CT_HOST_PREFIX}gcc -static"
            LD_for_gdb="${CT_HOST_PREFIX}ld -static -static"
        fi

or somthing along these lines?

Regards
Per A.

Well, looks like you hit the nail right on the head!
