What
to call the tools for MIPS
Cross-development tools in the
GNUPro Toolkit are normally installed with names that reflect the target
machine, so that you can install more than one set of tools in the same
binary directory. The target name, constructed with the --target
option to configure,
is used as a prefix to the program name. For example, the compiler for
the IDT/MIPS (called simply gcc
in native configurations) is called by one of the following names, depending
on which configuration you have installed.
mips-idt-ecoff-gcc
If configured for big-endian
byte ordering.
mipsel-idt-ecoff-gcc
If configured for little
endian byte ordering.
Likewise, the MIPS-configured
gdb
is called: mips-idt-gdb.
For DOS-hosted toolchains,
the tools are simply called by their standard names, such as gcc,
gdb,
etc.
