GCC Compiler Installation Instructions

To build the compiler from the source distribution

1. You will need to install the TI 990 cross assembler and linker (minimum versions shown). Download the compiler source and the libc library.

   asm990-2.4.1
   lnk990-2.2.1
   gcc-3.4.6-ti990-11.tar.gz
   ti990-libc-1.2.1
   

2. Create a binary directory in which the compiler will be built.

   $ cd /your_source_dir
   $ mkdir gcc-bin
   

3. Extract the sources.

   $ tar xzf gcc-3.4.6-ti990-11.tar.gz
   $ tar xzf asm990-2.4.1.tar.gz
   $ tar xzf lnk990-2.2.1.tar.gz
   $ tar xzf ti990-libc-1.2.1.tar.gz
   

4. Make and install the assembler and linker.

   $ cd /your_source_dir/asm990
   $ make
   $ sudo make install
   $ cd /your_source_dir/lnk990
   $ make
   $ sudo make install
   

5. Configure the compiler for DNOS:

   $ cd /your_source_dir/gcc-bin
   $ ../gcc-3.4.6/configure --enable-lanuages=c --with-ld=/usr/local/bin/lnk990 --with-as=/usr/local/bin/asm990 --target=ti990-ti-dnos
   

6. Configure the compiler for DX10:

   $ cd /your_source_dir/gcc-bin
   $ ../gcc-3.4.6/configure --enable-lanuages=c --with-ld=/usr/local/bin/lnk990 --with-as=/usr/local/bin/asm990 --target=ti990-ti-dx10
   

7. Now make the compiler.

   $ make
   

8. Install the compiler for DNOS:

   $ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/gcc/ti990-ti-dnos/3.4.6
   $ cd /your_source_dir/gcc-bin/gcc
   $ sudo cp cc1 collect2 cpp gcov gcov-dump specs /usr/local/lib/gcc/ti990-ti-dnos/3.4.6/
   $ sudo cp xgcc /usr/local/bin/gcc-dnos
   

9. Install the compiler for DX10:

   $ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/gcc/ti990-ti-dx10/3.4.6
   $ cd /your_source_dir/gcc-bin/gcc
   $ sudo cp cc1 collect2 cpp gcov gcov-dump specs /usr/local/lib/gcc/ti990-ti-dx10/3.4.6/
   $ sudo cp xgcc /usr/local/bin/gcc-dx10
   

10. Install the libc libraries and headers:

    $ cd /your_source_dir/ti990-libc
    $ make
    $ sudo make install
