libstdc++-v3 of gcc 4.1.0 fails during configure on Mac OS X and Cygwin

libstdc++-v3 of gcc 4.1.0 fails during configure on Mac OS X and Cygwin

[Hermann-Simon Lichte]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 579 bytes --]

Hello,

I wanted to compile gcc 4.1.0 for a powerpc-eabi target using newlib,  
but libstdc++-v3's configure fails with the following error message:

checking for shared libgcc… configure: error: Link tests are not  
allowed after GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES

This error is produced at line # 87576 in configure.

This happens both on a Darwin 8.6.0 and a Windows XP Cygwin machine.  
I have no trouble building 3.x gcc's so in the meantime I'll stick  
with on of these.

Please find attached the bzipped config.log.

Any pointers are appreciated.

Cheers,
Hermann

I am not sure why this occurs but it can be more of a configure error
than a gcc error.

Moreover trying buiding with same options but end a directory like
--prefix=/a/ instead of --prefix=/a .

Can tell me how you are building the stuff. Like the steps and
commands you used.

I copied the libgloss and the newlib directory of the latest newlib  
release (1.14) into the gcc source tree and configured with the  
following parameters:

--target=powerpc-eabi --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-powerpc-eabi --with- 
local-prefix=/usr/local/gcc-powerpc-eabi --enable-languages=c,c++ -- 
with-newlib

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
Hermann

Hello again,

Please note that gcc 4.0.3 does not reveal this problem. I was able  
to build a 4.0.3 cross-compiler without trouble.

Cheers,
Hermann

Do the same thing (you maybe missing out a / or another character).
like go to gcc4-0.3 -v
copy it to a file

do the same thing for gcc4.1.
I think it should work fine.

I just built powerpc-eabi as target. First binutils and then gcc with
newlib. I didn't copy libgloss. But still it worked.Try what i have
done below.




pro@deb:~/powerpc-eabi-env/bin$ ./powerpc-eabi-g++ -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: powerpc-eabi
Configured with: /home/pro/gcc-4.1.0/configure --target=powerpc-eabi
--prefix=/home/pro/powerpc-eabi-env/ --with-newlib
--enable-languages=c,c++ --disable-libssp
Thread model: single
gcc version 4.1.0
pro@deb:~/powerpc-eabi-env/bin$ ./powerpc-eabi-gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: powerpc-eabi
Configured with: /home/pro/gcc-4.1.0/configure --target=powerpc-eabi

--enable-languages=c,c++ --disable-libssp
Thread model: single
gcc version 4.1.0
pro@deb:~/powerpc-eabi-env/bin$


I only got this because  i think i didn't do something properly. The C
compiler is installed correctly. only make install of c++ went wrong.
I would suggest installing them seperately would work fine.

/bin/sh: line 3: cd: powerpc-eabi/libstdc++-v3: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [install-target-libstdc++-v3] Error 1
