Hello I have one question to a port too. I need for the H8 an ELF compiler. The original can make only the coff format. How much time do you think take the time? Thanks Hansjörg -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: querbach@realtime.bc.ca [mailto:querbach@realtime.bc.ca] Gesendet: Freitag, 16.

We did a port to the Motorola HC11, HC12, and HC16 starting about five years ago. You can see the result at http://www.realtime.bc.ca. > If so, how long did it take and what docs were realy useful (except > gnu docs and Hans-Peter Nilsson's pgccd.pdf )? We did gcc first; it took about three man-months for the first CPU and considerably less for the other two. We did gas and ld later; these took about one man-month. At the time, we had only the gcc docs and the source. The trick is to find an existing port that's either similar to your target, or is extremely simple, and use it as a starting point. We used the we32k port, if memory serves. By the way, what machine do you have in mind? Regards, David Querbach Real-Time Systems Inc. ------ Want more information?
