KolibriOS-NG C/C++ SDK and ports

This repository contains a GCC cross-compiler specially prepared for KolibriOS-NG, as well as ports of libraries and programs

Build GCC-toolchain

So far this build has only been tested on Arch Linux, please write to the issue if you have a problem with another GNU/Linux distribution.

  1. Dependencies need to be installed. For Arch Linux it is:

    sudo pacman -S base-devel gmp libmpc mpfr

    For other distributions, take a look at the OSDev Wiki.

  2. Prepare the /opt/kolibrios-sdk directory for writing. To do this, you can create a symlink to a folder in your home directory. Or change the path for SDK_TOOLCHAIN_DIR and SDK_SYSROOT_DIR in start-recipe.

  3. Start toolchain build from the repository root (i do not recommend using superuser rights):

    ./build-toolchain.sh

    At the end of the build, you will have a compiled GCC compiler for C and C++, the standard C library and the standard C++ library.

  4. You need to add the path to the compiler to the patch PATH environment variable. For example, add:

     export PATH=$PATH:/opt/kolibrios-sdk/toolchain/bin

    to your ~/.bashrc file.

Usage

You can simply use i586-kolibrios-gcc to compile your C program:

i586-kolibrios-gcc hello.c -o hello

There is also a small example in C++17: tiny_ls.cc. You can build it manually or using the kos-recipe.sh script.

Warning

KolibriOS-NG team comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY! You may use this software at your own risk. This is still far from stable. This may contain a huge number of errors, data races and unimplemented things. Therefore, do not hesitate to file a bug report and report problems.
