[ECOS] Non-GCC compiler

[ECOS] Non-GCC compiler

[Slide]

Has anyone been able to get eCos compiling with a non-GCC based
compiler? The processor I would like to port to does not have a GCC
toolchain available.

Thanks,

It must be some exotic processor if gcc does not support it.  It will
be a lot of hard work porting eCos to another tool chain.  Do you have
the source code to the tool chain you intend to use? You might find it
useful when you come to work around some of the GCC extensions which
eCos uses, eg constructor ordering, HAL tables etc.

Some compilers claim to be compatible to gccs extensions, e.g. GreenHills 
(http://www.ghs.com/products/optimizingC++EC++Compilers.html). Which 
toolchain is it ?

It is the MSA core which is coupled with the Xscale core in some
Intel/Marvell devices. There is a GCC toolchain for a similar
processor (Blackfin) but the differences are enough that the Blackfin
compiler will not work. There is a compiler from Intel/Marvell that I
was wondering if I could use.
