This question may be a bit foolish.
According to the gcc official homepage, the standard commands for
configuring gcc-3.0 are:
% mkdir objdir
% cd objdir
% srcdir/configure [target] [options]
where objdir is the top level build/object directory and srcdir is the
toplevel source directory.
But I did not follow the above instruction. I thought that gcc-3.0 was like
other gnu programs and the configuration commands should be: (the
gcc-3.0.tar.gz is located at /archives/ and after unzipping,
/archives/gcc-3.0/ was created)
cd /archives/gcc-3.0/
./configure
Do my commands work? I have no idea what toplevel source directory and what
toplevel build/object directory are.
Is /archives/gcc-3.0/ my toplevel source directory?
What is my toplevel build/object directory?
