../configure --target=arm-linux --prefix=/usr/src/arm/linux/include

Not a bug, configure is picking up the wrong as because you did not supply one to it.

I don't think that's the case I just ran a "make clean" and changed my
"configure" to the following and still recieve the same error
messages:

===code=====================================================
../configure --target=arm-linux --prefix=/usr/src/arm/linux/include
--with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --enable-multilib
--enable-languages=c,c++,java --disable-nls --nfp --with-cpu-xscale
--with-softfloat-support=internal
============================================================

Note the added --with-gnu-as and --with-gnu-ld options.

@ is the comment marker even for GNU as.

You want to use --with-as=PATH_TO_AS and likewise for --with-ld=.

I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking for? Am I looking for a file
called gnu-as that was included with the gcc-4.0.1 source?  Is this a
target specific file?  I ran a "locate gnu-as" and came up with
nothing on my system.  Could you please provide a little more
information on this?

Thank You.

You built binutils, right?

Also you might want to look into cross tool:

Yes I just built binutils 2.16.1 by the following procedure:
===procedure=================================================
bunzip2 binutils-2.16.1.tar.bz2
tar xvf binutils-2.16.1.tar
cd binutils-2.14
mkdir arm-linux
cd arm-linux
../configure --target=arm-linux
make
vi ld/earmelf_linux.c
- add a new SERACH_DIR line for every current SERACH_DIR line in file
SEARCH_DIR(\"/usr/local/arm-linux/lib/be\");\n\
make
make install
chmod 777 /usr/local/arm-linux
============================================================
Can you tell where "as" should be based on that?

> Also you might want to look into cross tool:
> http://kegel.com/crosstool/

I'll take a look, I think i've used some of the utilities from the
site before with little success, but i'll check again.

Thanks.

Subject: Re:  Building gcc-4.0.1 toolchain for arm-linux fails durring "make"

I was able to find an arm-linux-as and arm-linux-ld under
/usr/local/bin, hopefully these are the correct files and versions of
them.  Given your suggestion I added those paths to "--with-gnu-as"
and "--with-gnu-ld", however I still get the exact same errors.  I
think this still very well may be a bug.  Here's the latest
configuration with those changes:

===code====================================================
../configure --target=arm-linux --prefix=/usr/src/arm/linux/include
--with-gnu-as=/usr/local/bin/arm-linux-as
--with-gnu-ld=/usr/local/bin/arm-linux-ld --enable-multilib
--enable-languages=c,c++,java --disable-nls --nfp --with-cpu-xscale
--with-softfloat-support=internal
===========================================================

> Also you might want to look into cross tool:
> http://kegel.com/crosstool/

As for crosstool, it appears as though the current version of
crosstools, 0.38 does not currently support java (gcj) for xscale.

You did not read my suggestion of doing --with-as=PATHTOAS.

You did build in a clean directory the last time.  This works for many other people.  People build cross 
compilers all the time.

I had --with-gnu-as=/usr/local/bin/arm-linux-as in my last e-mail
under the ===code=== section.  Or where you suggesting getting rid of
the "gnu" in "--with-gnu-as="?

In any case it seems as though I have been able to get past that
issue.  I've changed my "configure" to:

===code======================================================
../configure --target=arm-linux --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld
--enable-multilib --enable-languages=c,c++,java --disable-nls --nfp
--with-cpu-xscale --with-softfloat-support=internal
=============================================================

I removed the --prefix as well as the paths to gnu-as and gnu-ld
(against your suggestion) and ran "make" and it's deffinately getting
further than before (it's been compiling for over an hour now).  I
will send another update once this is out of the woods (or if it
fails).  If it does fail, I'll attempt using --with-as=PATH_TO_as vs.
--with-gnu-as or --with-gnu-as=PATH_TO_as.

Thanks.

Pinski-

That last configuration I sent you seems to almost work.  Make finally
finished and then I ran "make install".  arm-linux-gcj runs without
complaining about java.lang or anything like that.  However when I
tried to arm-linux-gcj a HelloWorld.java, I recieve an error:

===code==========================================================
[root@localhost java x_compile]# /usr/local/bin/arm-linux-gcj -Wall
HelloWorld.java -o HelloWorld.o
/usr/local/lib/gcc/arm-linux/4.0.1/../../../../arm-linux/lib/crt1.o:
In function `_start':
init.c:(.text+0x2c): undefined reference to `main'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
=================================================================

Any ideas as to what might be the root of this issue?

Thanks.

Still reporting an error, althought slightly different:

===code=======================================================
[root@localhost java_xcompile]# /usr/local/bin/arm-linux-gcj
HelloWorld.java --main=HelloWorld -g -o HelloWorld.exe
/root/tmp/cc4BfgHh.o: In function `main':
/root/tmp/ccyhMgPq.i:12: undefined reference to `HelloWorld::class$'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
==============================================================

Here's my complete HelloWorld.java source if there's any chance that
is wrong or needs something special for gcj:

===code=======================================================
class HelloWorldApp {
    public static void main (String args[]) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}
==============================================================

You want --main=MAINCLASS (or in this case HelloWorldApp).

Please read the docs better.

Ok, I fixed that and it seem to cross compile fine without any errors.
 However when I try to run the executable on the XScale I get a
segmentation fault.  I've seen people report the exact same issue on
the java list.  Any ideas what might cause this?  Otherwise I'll open
a new bug report relivant to the runtime error.

Thanks.

For reference the exact compile line I gave was:

===code===================================================
/usr/local/bin/arm-linux-gcj -static HelloWorld.java
--main=HelloWorldApp -g -o HelloWorld.exe
=========================================================

And the target system is an ARMCore / CM-X255 (Compulab) w/ a PXA-255

It appears the Segmentation Fault error I get at runtime is common and
already documented as bug# 5487.  The bug was closed due to difficulty
reproducing it.  Now that I've also been able to reproduce it, I've
submitted my info so hopefully it can be reopened.  I've now seen this
bug reproduced by at least 3 users.
