Re: Problem building gcc for arm-pid

[Jason Finnegan <jasonf at sds dot agilent dot com>]

There does appear to be "\" popping up in the code.  Here is a snippit of
some of the code in that file:

#define TARGET_SWITCHES  				\
{                         				\
  {"apcs",			ARM_FLAG_APCS_FRAME, "" }, \
  {"apcs-frame",		ARM_FLAG_APCS_FRAME, 	\
     "Generate APCS conformant stack frames" },		\
  {"no-apcs-frame",	       -ARM_FLAG_APCS_FRAME, "" }, \
  {"poke-function-name",	ARM_FLAG_POKE, 		\
     "Store function names in object code" },		\
  {"no-poke-function-name",    -ARM_FLAG_POKE, "" },	\


This is the code I was told to download from eCos's Building the ARM
development tools for Windows webpage
at: http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/tools/win-arm-elf.html

Is there a newer or better version of this code that I should get for
Windows?  The two files recommended were: 
GCC 2.95.2 core compiler
distribution (gcc-core-2.95.2.tar.bz2 - 6.6MB) 
GCC 2.95.2 C++ distribution (gcc-g++-2.95.2.tar.bz2 - 1.2MB) 

Thanks for the help,
Jason Finnegan
