How to build gcc-4.3 natively on Haiku: checkout the buildtools from the haiku repository cd into the buildtools folder (where this file lives) declare the current gcc-version-date like this: export GCCDATE=100421 (just use the current date instead of '100421') compile binutils: mkdir binutils-obj cd binutils-obj CFLAGS="-O2" CXXFLAGS="-O2" ../binutils/configure \ --prefix=/boot/develop/abi/x86/gcc4/tools/gcc-4.3.3-haiku-${GCCDATE} \ --disable-nls --enable-shared=yes make -j2 cd .. compile gcc: mkdir gcc-obj cd gcc-obj CFLAGS="-O2" CXXFLAGS="-O2" ../gcc/configure \ --prefix=/boot/develop/abi/x86/gcc4/tools/gcc-4.3.3-haiku-${GCCDATE} \ --enable-shared --enable-languages=c,c++ \ --disable-nls --without-libiconv-prefix --disable-libstdcxx-pch make -j2 bootstrap cd .. Ok, now everything is compiled and ready, waiting to be installed: mkdir /boot/develop/abi/x86/gcc4/tools/gcc-4.3.3-haiku-${GCCDATE} cd binutils-obj make install cd .. cd gcc-obj make install cd .. ln -sfn gcc-4.3.3-haiku-${GCCDATE} /boot/develop/abi/x86/gcc4/tools/current Please send questions & bug-reports to: Oliver Tappe
