mingw32 gcc
========================================================================
GCC is the GNU Compiler Collection, a fairly portable optimizing
compiler.
This MinGW port generates code for 32-bit versions of Windows, and should
run on any 32- or 64-bit Windows operating system.
No local patches were used.
Local customizations were limited to:
* Specific command-line options for configure and make,
* moving a few files after "make install",
* replacing redundant executables by a wrapper.
For details, see the build script.
New features:
-------------
* When linking C++ modules with shared libstdc++ (the default), the
linker does not warn anymore about activating auto-import (needs
binutils 2.21, at least).
* Fix missing symbols in the Objective C export library.
See also: http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.5/changes.html
General Notes:
--------------
* Shared libgcc: If all modules are linked with -shared-libgcc,
exceptions can be thrown across DLL boundaries. Note that this is
the default for all languages other than C. To disable this, use
-static-libgcc.
* Shared libstdc++: By default, C++ modules are linked with a DLL version
of libstdc++. To use the static version, use the -static-libstdc++ flag.
Note: When building and using DLLs, it is best in general not to use
static libraries, to avoid the issue of having multiple copies of shared
data. This applies to static libstdc++ as well.
* Translations into your language! See share\locale for a list of
codes. Unpack the translation archive in c:\MinGW and set the LANG
environment variable to the code of your preferred language.
* Inline functions decorated with __declspec(dllexport) are now always
generated and included in object files. This also applies to methods
defined in classes decorated with __declspec(dllexport).
This may cause a general increase in object size, since gcc generates
copies of each dllexport'd inline function in all object files whose
source includes the header defining the function.
Known Issues:
-------------
* The Java language is absent, pending resolution of build issues.
* The translation archive, when used, must be unpacked in c:\MinGW.
* The path "\mingw\include" on the current drive is always searched for
header files, regardless of where the compiler is installed. So, if
you want to keep multiple installations separated, better not to use
"\mingw" on any drive.
Testsuite results:

The result of the testsuite run for this compiler was submitted to the
GCC project. It is available at:

========================================================================
Build instructions:
1) Unpack gcc-4.5.2-1-mingw32-src.tar.lzma
2) Install the build requirements.
2.1) If you have mingw-get in PATH, you can use as a shorcut:
./pkgbuild -e build_dep
But note: this will not install the exact same versions of the
packages listed above, but their latest versions.
2.2) MinGW should be installed in c:/mingw.
2.3) In the MSYS build shell, you should issue:
mount /mingw /mingw
3) In the MSYS build shell, run <path-to-source>/pkgbuild
4) To generate the test results, run <path-to-source>/pkgbuild -e check
Currently, this must be done under Cygwin, since the dejagnu tool is
required.
See <path-to-source>/pkgbuild -h for further options.
