Re: [Flashforth-devel] building flashforth with avra?

[Mikael N. <mik...@fl...>]

XC8 is based on the Gnu Compiler toolchain.
There is a free licence with the MPLABX and XC8 toolchains.

These are the binaries you get.
$ ls /opt/microchip/xc8/v2.32/avr/bin
avr-addr2line  avr-as   avr-c++filt  avr-elfedit  avr-gcc        
avr-gcc-ar  avr-gcc-ranlib  avr-gcov-tool  avr-gdb-py  avr-ld      
avr-man  avr-objcopy  avr-ranlib   avr-size     avr-strip
avr-ar         avr-c++  avr-cpp      avr-g++      avr-gcc-5.4.0  
avr-gcc-nm  avr-gcov        avr-gdb        avr-gprof   avr-ld.bfd  
avr-nm   avr-objdump  avr-readelf  avr-strings

I have not looked for the source code. I do not need it.

If you do not want to use XC8 you can find prebuilt Gnu Compiler 
toolchains on the internet.
For example here https://gnutoolchains.com/avr/
