Re: [Sdcc-user] Compiling is very slow...

[Karl B. <ka...@tu...>]

Thorsten,

There is a bug somewhere in cygwin/sdcc which causes it to be
slow like this.  I think its Bill Gates fault.  Some solutions:

* Linux.

* You can compile a native Win32 version using the free
for download borland V5.5? compiler.  This creates a fast
version.  I haven't done this for a while, but the source dirs
have a makefile.bcc in them, so if you run make -f makefile.bcc
I think this will do the compile.

* I've been curious about the mingwin32, which I've heard is a
faster more native alternate to cygwin default libs.  But I don't
know how to plumb it in.

* I suppose it could be debugged and a work around or fix made.
