Talk:GNU toolchain

Cross compiling

 * i understand that a classical toolchain permit the compilation of aa program for an unix os such as mac-osx,linux,bsd...with the same kind of processor and a few variables changes
 * but what about cross compiling...is there different ways to compile an aplication from a computer to another platform??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.244.232.85 (talk) 19:46, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
 * "Different ways"? All the tools work the same. The key differences are that you need headers and libraries appropriate for the target, and they are likely to be different from the host's versions. Stan 22:07, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

List of tools?
Wouldn't it be relevant with a list of the GNU tools in the toolchain? 88.151.46.43 09:52, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
 * There is a list of the tools already. If you mean a list of binaries, then no, that would be a pretty boring list. NicM 12:09, 17 April 2007 (UTC).
 * Was 88.151.46.43 looking for an example list of tools for a particular case? Well, a simple example might be all the tools that are mentioned in the article, except the debugger. One might be experienced, and lucky, to make work that is only slightly different then the work somebody else already did. In that case, the later work might actually work on first shot, saving the need for a debugger. 08:44, 7 September 2013 (UTC). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.90.139.210 (talk)
