Hi All,
I tried following Andreas' instructions, without much success. I
installed the current MinGW (2.0.0.0-3) and MSYS (1.0.8-2002.09.07-1) on
a WinMe machine. When I run build.sh from the MSYS shell I get a variety
of errors, that all seem to relate to header issues. The first one I hit
is in binutils-2.11/opcodes/msp430-dis.c, where u_short has not been
defined. If I fudge this one, I hit another file where u_int is not
defined. If I fudge that, I get a mass of definition related problems in
gcc 3.2. At this point I figured that seeking help was in order.
Has anyone else hit this problem? Is this some version dependant problem?
Regards,
Steve

Hi everyone,
I have made a new binary with gcc version 3.2. As usual you can find
it on http://www.mikrocontroller.net/mspgcc.en.htm.
Many people asked me how I'm doing it, so here is a small howto:
1. Install mingw32, msys and the cvs-client from cygwin.
2. Download gcc-core-3.2.tar.gz and binutils-2.11.tar.gz, copy them
to /c/mspgcc-source and extract them there with "tar -xzvf" (enter
all commands in msys)
3. Copy the patch file from the attachment to /c/mspgcc-source and
execute it with "patch < *.patch" (you have to enter the filenames
manually because the patch expects that the gcc directory is called
gcc-3.0)
4. Make a directory called /c/mspgcc-source/msp430 (this is where the
msp430-specific files from the cvs will be downloaded to)
5. Execute the build.sh.
Now mspgcc should be installed to c:/msp430. If you want to update to
a new version simply repeat step 5.
