Re: [gnu.org #283065] Confirming the mailing of your assignment
Hi Jonas, Thanks for this confirmation. To accelerate my processing of these papers, would it be possible to already have an electronic version of them by e-mail? Even a generic version would be ok. This way, I can sign and return you the paper copy as soon as I get it. Cheers, Nic.

Update of mirrors web page
http://gcc.gnu.org/mirrors.html lists a number of mirrors that are no longer reachable, doesn't mention that certain mirrors don't have snapshots, etc. Can you please investigate.

Most mirros on that page have a nicely structured hierarchy with several sub-directories (infrastructure, libstd++, etc). Those with a "weird structure" have a sub-dir for every release, and are missing some of the other dirs (e.g. infrastructure). -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/

Microchip have done a modified version of GCC-3.3 with DSPICs support, so we have got a heavy good base to work on the instruction set, wich is similar for PIC18.

gcc-4.2-20060408 is now available
Snapshot gcc-4.2-20060408 is now available on ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots/4.2-20060408/ and on various mirrors, see http://gcc.gnu.org/mirrors.html for details. This snapshot has been generated from the GCC 4.2 SVN branch with the following options: svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunk revision 112784 You'll find: gcc-4.2-20060408.tar.bz2 Complete GCC (includes all of below) gcc-core-4.2-20060408.tar.bz2 C front end and core compiler gcc-ada-4.2-20060408.tar.bz2 Ada front end and runtime gcc-fortran-4.2-20060408.tar.bz2 Fortran front end and runtime gcc-g++-4.2-20060408.tar.bz2 C++ front end and runtime gcc-java-4.2-20060408.tar.bz2 Java front end and runtime gcc-objc-4.2-20060408.tar.bz2 Objective-C front end and runtime gcc-testsuite-4.2-20060408.tar.bz2The GCC testsuite Diffs from 4.2-20060401 are available in the diffs/ subdirectory. When a particular snapshot is ready for public consumption the LATEST-4.2 link is updated and a message is sent to the gcc list. Please do not use a snapshot before it has been announced that way.

Boehm GC memory leak on Darwin
I'm sending this note again since I have been caught in this bug once more. Under Darwin (PPC and Intel) there is a serious memory leak at every Boehm GC cycle. See discussion and patch here: http://www.hpl.hp.com/hosted/linux/mail-archives/gc/2005-December/ 001071.html I think that the patch should be applied to every maintained branch. Please maintainers, check this in! Cheers, Sandro Tolaini
Re: Darwin long doubles and controlled rounding

What I would like do know is whether I can expect long doubles on Darwin to comply with ISO C99 7.6 (Floating-point environment). They can be made compliant with that section, but it requires cooperation from the project providing fenv.h. I am particularly interested in the possibility of setting the rounding mode with fesetround(). Is this supported? This implementation only supports one rounding mode, FE_TONEAREST, so it's not useful to call fesetround(). Thanks for the information.

gcc representation of long double on ia32
Hi all, This may be a silly question but I am a little bit stuck on it. I want to use the 512 byte structure which saves the floating point register state and convert it into a simulator that uses "long double" to represent each st(i) register. Each "st" register is represented as a 16 bytes with 6 most significant reserved. So only the first 10 bytes are the actual register value. I want to take this 10 byte representation and convert it into a long double variable in my code. My question is how do I do it? Can I simply type cast it? Is there a correspondence between the 80bit register value and the represenation that gcc uses for a long double on ia32? Would the below work? unsigned char st[10]; // assume this contains the content of one of the st registers long double n = *((long double *) st) Would this work? If not, can someone please tell me how to do this exactly? Thanks, Cristiano. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
