- - Notes for developpers developping with the GCC backend: once GCC (with GHDL) has been built once, it is possible to work on the GHDL source tree without copying it in the GCC tree. Commands are::
-
- $ make ghdl1-gcc # Build the compiler
- $ make ghdl_gcc # Build the driver
- $ make libs.vhdl.local_gcc # Compile the vhdl libraries
- $ make grt-all # Build the GHDL runtime
- $ make grt.links # Locally install the GHDL runtime

- Note for ppc64 (and AIX ?) platform: the object file format contains an identifier for the source language. Because gcc doesn't know about the VHDL, gcc crashes very early. This could be fixed with a very simple change in gcc/config/rs6000/rs6000.c, function rs6000_output_function_epilogue (as of gcc 4.8):

- Install file for the binary distribution of GHDL. The binary are installed in /usr/local directory. You cannot change this default location, unless you set links. You must be root to install this distribution. To install ghdl: `tar -C / -jxvf @TARFILE@.tar.bz2`. Note: you must also have a C compiler and zlib installed.
