Just for curiosity, does anyone still run a ICM-3216? If so, is there any interest in native coff GCC-1.39, G++-1.39 and GDB-1.35 for said platform? This tool set is intended for SystemVr2. No testing has been done on the ICM-3216 System Vr3.0 port. Note that these tools have been known to work on an ICM-332-1 running r3.0 Fine print: - The code and binaries are available, but I don't want to get into major amounts of tape dup'ing.... - In addition, as the native pcc is not able to compile gcc, you either need some other compiler (i.e. gnx, pcc from the ICM-332-1, etc) or the binary of gcc. - There still remains two known bugs, one caused by a md problem which appears in less than 1% of optimizations. The result is a compiler abort due to an impossible register allocation. The other is due to a problem in the native assembler. This is a minor problem involving typedef's of functions when debugging information is in the as source. -- Scott Stratmoen | ..!ast!freedm!scott | scott%freedm@ast.dsd.northrop.com
