GCC for tha AMIGA...

Hi guys...

For the AMIGA fans out there...

Not sure if this is the right forum but someone has done a successful working port of gcc for the classic AMIGA A1200.

It contains a very large subset of *NIX commands and now AMIGA fanatics like me can include another platform, within the platforms limits.

The gcc version is old 2.95.3 but hey the platform is old too and opens up a new avenue to learn shell scripting.

The shell is ksh.

The source code is there along with pre-compiled binaries, much more too.

It is on AMINET here:-

Aminet - dev/gcc/ADE.zip

Get out your old A1200s and have a little fun... ;oD

__BUILTIN_OBJECT_SIZE(3)				   BSD Library Functions Manual 				  __BUILTIN_OBJECT_SIZE(3)

NAME
__builtin_object_size -- return the size of the given object SYNOPSIS
size_t __builtin_object_size(void *ptr, int type); DESCRIPTION
The __builtin_object_size() function is a gcc(1) built-in function that returns the size of the ptr object if known at compile time and the object does not have any side effects. RETURN VALUES
If the size of the object is not known or it has side effects the __builtin_object_size() function returns: (size_t)-1 for type 0 and 1. (size_t)0 for type 2 and 3. If the size of the object is known, then the __builtin_object_size() function returns the maximum size of all the objects that the compiler knows that they can be pointed to by ptr when type & 2 == 0, and the minimum size when type & 2 != 0. SEE ALSO
gcc(1), __builtin_return_address(3), attribute(3), ssp(3) HISTORY
The __builtin_object_size() appeared in GCC 4.1. CAVEATS
This is a non-standard, compiler-specific extension. BSD
