Reply To: Compiling Rosetta on Intel Macs running Leopard (OS X 10.5)

Thank you for your responses. Your questions and suggestions led me to the right path. It turns out that I was referencing version 4.4.0 for gcc. I pointed the makefile to the a copy of gcc 4.0.1 from Apple Developer tools (/Developer/usr/bin/gcc-4.0 and /Developer/usr/bin/g++-4.0 ). To make the change I edited the portions of the make file to read:

for the gcc compiler definition:

#GCC Variables

GCC = /Developer/usr/bin/gcc-4.0

GXX = /Developer/usr/bin/g++-4.0

and in the mactel build section:

ifeq ($(MAKECMDGOALS),mactel)
BUILD_TYPE := mactel
BUILD_MODE := release
CC = $(GCC)
CXX = $(GXX)
WARNFLAGS = $(GCC_WARNFLAGS) -Wno-long-double
DEPFLAGS = $(GCC_DEPFLAGS)
DEBUGFLAGS :=
OPTFLAGS := -pipe -ffor-scope -fno-exceptions
OPTFLAGS += -ffast-math -funroll-loops
OPTFLAGS += -finline-functions -finline-limit=20000
OPTFLAGS += -DNDEBUG -O3 -s
COPTFLAGS := -std=c99
CXXOPTFLAGS := -std=c++98
# XXX: Fill out platform path for macttel
INCLUDE_DIRS += -Isrc/platform/macos/
LDFLAGS := -Llib
# Set stack size to max 64M at link time
LDFLAGS += -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk -Wl,-stack_size,4000000,-stack_addr,0xc0000000
LIB_OBJ += lib/mactel/libz.a
LDLIBS = $(GCC_LDLIBS)
STRIP = strip
endif

ALSO, PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING SPECIFIC CHANGES:

1. a change in LIB_OBJ += was necessary to look for the correct version of libz.a. the line now reads: LIB_OBJ += lib/mactel/libz.a

2. LDFLAgs had been set to look in /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4.u.sdk, however this gave the build error:

lib/libz.a -o rosetta.mactel
ld: library not found for -lcrt1.10.5.o
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [rosetta.mactel] Error 1

Correcting the path to /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk AND copying /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/lib/crt1.10.5.o to /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/lib/lcrt1.10.5.o allowed rosetta to successfully compile and produced the rosetta.mactel executable with no errors.

thanks again for your help, questions and suggestions!
