[Vm-dev] Cannot compile Cog: GCC 4.7

[gettimothy]

Hi Eliot,






Hi Tim,

    how about adding that advice to build.linux32x86/HowToBuild?



 


Where do you want it in that file? 


The table of contents of the HowToBuild file looks like this->




How To Build On Linux
---------------------


Contents:
 - Overview
 - Checking out sources to build out-of-the-box
 - Building out of the box
 - Building the Bochs Support Libraries
 - Compiling in 32-bit mode on a 64-bit linux
 - How to configure and build a VM on Unix
 - Testing an external plugin has completely linked
 - Optimization level and gcc version (please read!)
 - Installing support libraries

 
the -"How to configure and build a VM on Unix" does go into some detail  so the information is there it is just that one has to think a bit.


Would a '-For the impatient' or '-Terse guide' section be helpful?




>cd [language].[vm].[memory model]  (e.g. cd squeak.cog.v3)
>cd build[.*]   (cd to your desired build type.)
>cat mvm       (study this)



 cordially,



tty
