Hi, There are two solutions, you can specify a preferred compiler in a recipe or change the main compiler.
To change preferred compiler in a recipe: TOOLCHAIN_pn-<recipe-name> = "<your_compiler>" DEPENDS_append_pn-<recipe-name> = " <your_compiler>-cross " To change the main compiler: TOOLCHAIN = "<your_compiler>" There is a example in the official wiki : http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Adding_a_secondary_toolchain Best regards, Thomas P.
