Newlib port for new architecture

[Varun.Kumar@infineon.com]

Hi,

I am using Cygwin to configure the newlib in windows environment [ I wanted to check if build for arm is working before I start porting code for tricore arch]
I am trying to use pre-built gcc image of arm [SysGCC ] for trial purpose. It is added in path variable, still not getting recognized.  Attaching the logfile also. 

Any help would be appreciated!!!

Hi Joel,

Thanks for quick response!

**Tricore gcc is from hightec, and I guess, they do provide an evaluation version but I am not sure as a port.
**Newlib tricore port would be pushed back to FSF (which I will be doing).
**I wil try Cygwin environment and build newlib sources this weekend. Hopefully, it shall work! :)

Many Thanks,
Varun

Did the Tricore gcc/binutils port get submitted to the FSF?

RTEMS uses newlib, gcc, etc. We have a Python framework called the RTEMS Source Builder which can build an entire toolchain under Cygwin or MINGW64 (or whatever it is now).

It should be fairly straightforward to just build newlib in that environment.
