1 README for GNU development tools
3 This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers,
4 debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.
6 If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
7 If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release,
8 see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this
9 package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.
11 It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
12 tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein,
13 run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:
18 To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
22 (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
23 the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can
24 use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
25 it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
28 If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
29 explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
30 also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):
