Hi.

The cross-compiler utils mentioned here:
http://library.morph.zone/Developer_tools

don't seem to be available anymore.
Anyone knows where to get those?

So I found a cross-compiler for macOS here: morph.zone

But it only has gcc 4.4.5. I'm wondering if there is something newer?

Hmm. With a macOS toolchain I don't get much further.
Is there no pre-compiled Linux cross-toolchain?

Alright, alright. I'm building it.
I've tried on openSUSE with information found on:
- http://kas1e.mikendezign.com/morphos/mos_cygwin.txt
I've pretty much done what's in there, except using the current SDK stuff and the latest "setup-cross-sdk.sh".
But I'm running into some issues.

What's the preferred Linux you want to have this built on?

And to be honest, why is there no pre-built stuff that one can find and use?

It's a pitty. Because I'd like to do something useful.
But I don't want to spend my time on trying to build cross-compiler tools.
No one?

My cross-setup runs on Debian8 if I remember right.

I wish I could provide a cross-sdk one day, but I don't currently have the hardware I could comfortably do this on.

What do you mean? You don't know how or where to distribute this?

Well, but if you have cross-compiler tools for Debian 8, then put them somewhere to download.
More people could be interested, so maybe it could be put at morphos-storage?

I just compiled current 3.10 SDK with Debian 8 without problems. Using script from http://bigfoot.morphos-team.net/files/setup-cross-sdk.sh

Make sure you have 32-bit support libraries installed to used Gcc and Gcc is not 'too new'. 'Too new' Gcc probably need some additional cflags to the script. Debian 8 has gcc-4.9 and it worked quite well with script mentioned before.

Making Debian-package would be better idea than just sharing some non-static binaries without dependencies.

A tar.gz package which maps into /opt/mos-sdk , or whatever is IMO better than nothing.

I've tried with openSUSE and ran into a couple of issues.
But if you say it works smooth on Debian I'll give it try.

I've made a toolchain installer script for Linux that makes this process a bit easier:

Nice.
Should the cross-toolchain on macOS actually work the same as on Linux or are there any limitations?

It's a bit of a rework of http://bigfoot.morphos-team.net/files/setup-cross-sdk.sh to automate the install a bit. So far I've only tried it on Linux. Feel free to try it out on Mac and let me know if it works. :)

I *almost* got this script to work on High Siera 10.13.4 with a bit of fudging.

Install http://brew.sh
brew install xz gcc@5 gnu-sed gnu-tar

Then edit the toolchain-morphos script and replace all occurrences of sed/tar with gsed/gtar

It stops complaining and goes about downloading and extracting everything, but fails to build gcc and ends.

Code:

I've wasted far too many hours on this.

Clang, gcc-4.9,gcc-5,gcc-7 none of them build the cross-compiler successfully.

Issues with libgmp being 64bit on the host.

Really can't be arsed anymore. The 68k and OS4 cross-compiler toolchain's both build without issues on the same machine.

One more reason why I don't bother with MorphOS much anymore.

Why not just install Docker and build a cross-compiler inside a proper Linux environment? It's much quicker and easier than a full virtual machine at least, and you won't get screwed over by MacOS quirkyness.

Good idea, thanks.

I'm stubborn so I wanted to get it working on MacOS. I'll probably still spend hours fiddling on it. :)
