I am trying to build a native glidix gcc using my cross-compiler that runs on linux. The configuration line I use is:

../glidix-gcc/configure --host=x86_64-glidix --target=x86_64-glidix --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --enable-languages=c --disable-nls --disable-libstdcxx

The build fails at a very strange error:

Code: Select all

As we can see from the command, while building libcpp, it tries using the linux compiler (g++). My OS has no C++ cross-compiler built as I do not yet intend to support C++. So I do not even see any reason why it would try to build libcpp in the first place.

Has anyone stumbled upon this issue?

These days gcc is a c++ program.

So i have to first port the c++ library?

At least as much as GCC uses, yes.

The last version of GCC to use only C was 4.7.4, released on 2014-06-12. The first version of GCC to use C++ was 4.8.0, released on 2013-03-22.
