Thread: Adding a template for new platform

Adding a template for new platform

From
"Lee, Patricia S."
Date:
I'm trying to figure out how to compile for a new platform with a
compiler other than the gcc compiler.  My environment is such that I
have my own compiler running on a windows machine, and it's own linker.
It works to change the compiler in the Makefile.Global.in file, but it
keeps wanting to link with the gcc linker, I suspect this is because I
am trying this with MinGW.  Any suggestions?  I considered making a
change instead to the Makefile.am before running the autogen script but
could not find this file.  Is it available?  Is it a plausible solution
to trying to add my own template for compilation, etc.?  Please advise.


Thanks,
Patty
