Sound great! 68k badly needed a new compiler!

But is this a 68k hosted 68k-generating compiler?
Or is it an x86 hosted, 68k-generating compiler?
Or is it something else..?

Cygwin is x86 based. (Not 64 bit)

Runs on x86, compiles for 680x0.

I thought 68k support was being removed from GCC 4.4.x on.

at last! very good that its out now. i wasnt so far as to correctly setup anything above 3.4.x for 68k up till now. hope it will work correctly with devcpp.

>I thought 68k support was being removed from GCC 4.4.x on.

of course not, 68k is support as long there are 68k CPU sell.

this is great news !

I would suggest a script to use wget or Curl to download extra files and install in recommended locations so we can get easy setup for development.

for cygwin you need still install amidevcpp.

this are only the update files that can copy in the dir /usr/local/amiga (where the amidevcpp compilers are).it overwrite only the m68k-amigaos-gcc.exe and ..... g++file.

if you want use more 68k compiler versions on amidevcpp you can add a new compiler set in amidevcpp and add as the compiler name m68k-amigaos-gcc-4.5.0.exe to use the 4.5

and on the old entrie you can add m68k-amigaos-gcc-3.4.0.exe

You need update cygwin here,
http://www.cygwin.com/

programs compiled with new cygwin dont work on very old cygwin libs.

install dir and cygwin dir of your install must be the same.
if it after update not work, look if there anywhere a old cygwin1.dll that is not in amidevcpp/bin dir

I've installed the new compiler as said before, but still can't get it to work properly. I'm getting a build error 128. Any ideas ?
But I did manage to upgrade wxDevC++ to v7.3.1.3. Had to remake the aos3 compiler set as it was gone after upgrading.

i had similar isue.
bernd told me to run devcpp update setup again and explicitly install the mpc libraries. search for it as soon as packages are displayed. they are set to be skipped by default it seems. now the c++ compiler runs, how well remains to be tested. i seem to get some a little sorrupted feedback.
