Hi All,
I have to download a patch of gcc which should be atleast after gcc 3.0.4.
Because the bug I am facing is fixed in gcc after release of gcc 3.0.4. But
I am confused as how to do this thing. I know certain versions of both
header and implementation files required by libstdc++ which have been
modified to fix the bug in library.
1. First I would like to know that if there is some place where gcc builds
after a release version are maintained properly and available for
installation purposes. If yes where can I find it, plus how much reliable is
that build. I mean if every build is reliable to same amount or there are
releases after every month or something like that which says that this build
is more reliable than previous builds.
If the above solution is not possible then I would like to know that as to
how to determine which branch of source code should I check out for my
requirements. The question is again stability. For example I know the
changes which I require are in file localefwd.h in version 1.25 of this file
in main branch but there are so many other branches associated with this
file that makes difficult for me the selection of appropriate branch. Plus I
donot have the experience of doing this before. Can any body tell me some
helping material which explains how to make the standard library files out
of source code from gcc.
In short gcc 3.0.4 does not serves my purpose. I want to have a version of
gcc later than that by any means possible. How ?
Any help, links, suggestion or solution to this problem would be welcome. If
you need more detail then I can also provide you that. You can also reply me
to my personal email address. By the way I am using Irix OS and an SGI
multiprocessor machine for a multithreaded application.
Thanks & Regards
Muhammad Ali
