How do you mean that? You surely don't want to run the compiler directly on the target system, won't you? Besides that, autoconf runs on every platform which has a working shell, so if you have a bash on your PXA and if you run the compiler stuff on your target it should work anyway. Autoconf has the advantage that it has solved all the problems which will surely come up with a makefile system sooner or later, and it is established technology for nearly all possible platforms if it is done right. At the moment we have the situation that cross compilation doesn't work at all. Robert -- Dipl.-Ing.
