I am attempting to compile ECL for the Chumby, a small ARM-based device running Linux. This is my first time cross-compiling anything, so I'm not very sure of the information I've provided in the cross_config file. It occurs to me that since, when you're not cross-compiling, that information is gathered by compiling and running a bunch of tiny C programs, it should be possible to have a script cross-compile those programs and set up a little shell script to run them and output the cross_config file. Then you would just copy that to your target system, run it, and there you go. Any reason this hasn't been done yet?
In addition, there seems to be a problem with configure around line 9038; normally the test programs are surrounded by a check that skips them if the cross_config has a definition, but the test for HAVE___BUILTIN_RETURN_ADDRESS seems to miss this, so that a cross-compilation will always fail. configure:8979: checking working environ configure:9009: result: yes configure:9036: error: in `/home/jon/chumby-workspace/ecl/ecl-11.1.1/build': configure:9038: error: cannot run test program while cross compiling See `config.log' for more details ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security.
