Building GHDL from sources:
***************************
-Required:
-* the sources of @GCCVERSION@ (at least the core part).
- Note: other versions of gcc sources have not been tested.
-* the Ada95 GNAT compiler (GNAT GPL 2008 are known to work;
- Ada compilers in most Linux distributions are more or less buggy)
-* GNU/Linux for ix86 (pc systems) (porting is necessary for other systems)
-
-Procedure:
-* Check your Ada compiler. On some systems (or with some distribution), the
- GNAT compiler seems broken. Try this very simple example, using file
- example.adb
-<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
-procedure Example is
-begin
- null;
-end Example;
-<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
- Compile with
- $ gnatmake example
- It should create an executable, 'example'.
- If this doesn't work, your GNAT installation is broken. It may be a PATH
- problem or something else.
-* untar the gcc tarball
-* untar the ghdl tarball (this sould have been done, since you are reading a
- file from it).
-* move or copy the vhdl directory of ghdl into the gcc subdirectory of
- the gcc distribution.
- You should have a @GCCVERSION@/gcc/vhdl directory.
-* configure gcc with the --enable-languages=vhdl option. You may of course
- add other languages. Also you'd better to disable bootstraping using
- --disable-bootstrap.
- Refer to the gcc installation documentation.
-* compile gcc.
- 'make CFLAGS="-O"' is OK
-* install gcc. This installs the ghdl driver too.
- 'make install' is OK.
