Hi,

My team is in a process of contributing a new architecture to GCC. Can
someone please tell me what is the last date for adding a it to 3.4
version?

Regards,

Hi all,

I'm trying to compile a program, and i'm getting the error of caddr_t being
undefined.  I know its just a char* or void*, but I'm thinking this is an error
I should not have to work around.

The error actually occurs in: /usr/include/cygwin/if.h

But, looking at if.h, I see it includes sys/types.h.  This is turn includes a
definition for caddr_t:  typedef	char *	caddr_t;

Anyone got any ideas?  I'm using the Cygwin environment if that's an issue

Yamin

It's probably too late.  Of course, if the port doesn't require any
changes outside a new config/ directory then the release manager's more
likely to make an exception.

Take a look at the gcc.gnu.org web site, where there is a future
development timeline.

Okay, 
I think this is something to do with the header search order.  It does not look
like sys/types is being included.  I think something in the ming directories is
being included.  Anyone know how to add include directories to be searched AFTER
the standard directories are searched?

We even allowed the Tensilica port into a point release, because it
was completely non-intrusive (couldn't break anything else).  So, as
Daniel says, it depends on whether the port needs modification to the
processor-independent parts of GCC.

RTFM.  This question is off-topic for these mailing lists, which are about
the development /of/ GCC, not the basic usage /of/ GCC.  It's taken me
longer to type this email than it would have taken you to go to gcc.gnu.org
and click on the documentation link.
