Hi all,

I'm a little lost with the newlib:

What is a correct way to configure the newlib to use software floating
point math for i386?

Thanks!

Thanks for the answer! However, I think that your answer is for how to compile an application. My problem is on how to configure and build the library. I think that also the library should be built with -msoft-float option but I'm not able to find any suitable options for the ./configure command. Or am I completely lost?
