-You may run these scripts to build a Tiano Cross compiler. They have been

-tested on Cygwin, OS X and Linux. You must modify these scripts to make them

-work on your system. You may need to install additional tools on your system to

-make the scripts work.

-

-You will need

-

-  A recent version (3.0 or later should be fine) of gcc that is able to produce

-    executables for the machine that you want to run this compiler on (the host

-    machine).

-  wget or curl

-  tar

-  bzip

-  gzip

-  bash

-  and possibly others

-CYGWIN Notes

-

-You should setup cygwin to use binmode on all mounts. When you initially

-install cygwin it gives you the choice of Unix file mode (recommended) or DOS

-file mode. Unix mode will cause all the cygwin directories to be mounted in

-binmode, while DOS will mount the dirs in textmode. Here is an example of a

-cygwin install where the dirs are (properly) mounted in binmode.

-

-C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type user (binmode)

-C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type user (binmode)

-c:\workspace on /workspace type system (binmode)

-C:\cygwin on / type user (binmode)

-

-If you use textmode, it is likely that the build will fail in a way that is

-hard to debug.

-

-Cygwin is pretty slow, so it is not recommended for large builds.
