-This directory contains the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).
+ README for GNU development tools
-The GNU Compiler Collection is free software. See the file COPYING
-for copying permission. The manuals, and some of the runtime
-libraries, are under different terms; see the individual source files
-for details.
+This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers,
+debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.
-The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information
-as HTML and plain text. The source of this information is
-gcc/doc/install.texi. The installation information includes details
-of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs.
+If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
+If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release,
+see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this
+package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.
-See the file gcc/doc/gcc.texi (together with other files that it
-includes) for usage and porting information. An online readable
-version of the manual is in the files gcc/doc/gcc.info*.
+It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
+tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein,
+run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:
-See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html for how to report bugs usefully.
+ ./configure
+ make
+
+To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
+then do:
+ make install
+
+(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
+the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can
+use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
+it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
+and OS.)
+
+If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
+explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
+also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):
+
+ CC=gcc ./configure
+ make
+
+A similar example using csh:
+
+ setenv CC gcc
+ ./configure
+ make
+
+Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
+the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or
+COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
+GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.
+
+REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
+on where and how to report problems.
