- Subject: endianess of MCORE processors
Hello
I've compiled the binutils,gcc,newlib for the MCORE processor (successfully
I might add) only to find later that there is an endian-issue. I searched on
the binutils archives and found where Nick had a request from Motorola to
change the endianess of the MCORE port to default to little-endian. This
works correctly. Problem is... I know they released the processor as big
endian. I look at all the S-records the produced with their Metrowerks
application and it's big-endian but the gnu tools output little endian... It
appears as though at compile time this can be forced (I think) but that's
it...
What should be done?
Mark
