Jul 26, 2011 at 23:52 comment added James Snyder Makefile/Instructions for building CodeSourcery's sources on Mac OS X & Linux: github.com/jsnyder/arm-eabi-toolchain CodeSourcery is actually supported by ARM to maintain the GCC port for ARM. Their distribution has been tested as a unit (GCC,newlib,gdb,etc..) and often contains fixes that might take a version or two to make it into GCC mainline.
Apr 11, 2011 at 17:00 comment added old_timer code sourcery publishes their modifications to gcc, so you can take that route, build from their mods to gcc, or just build your own gnu based toolchain directly from the gcc sources, without getting into codesourcery stuff.
Oct 1, 2010 at 17:16 comment added Kevin Vermeer GCC based toolchains are guaranteed by the GPL to be free as per the GNU definition. However, toolchain vendors don't stay in business because of their giving nature: They sell support, IDEs, GUI debuggers, etc., and distribute working GCC implementations freely (except for Microchip-grr.) CodeSourcery G++ Lite is a free, unsupported command-line version of Sourcery G++ sponsored by CodeSourcery's hardware partners [that] .... contains command-line tools, including the GNU C and C++ compilers, the GNU assembler and linker, C and C++ runtime libraries, and the GNU debugger.
Sep 29, 2010 at 21:11 comment added txwikinger I saw the question you referenced, but it was not clear to me which of the toolchains there where truly free in the sense of the freedom software foundation's definition.
