C, C#,C++ Compilers for Mac OS X

Cross Compilers for Mac OS X

For some of my softwares, I needed to built a multi platform distribution package, including executable for Windows and Linux. As I mainly work on Mac, I have decided to built GCC cross compilers for Windows and Linux. Then I have built Mac OS X packages in order to make installation simplest.


Compiling for WIN32 on Mac OS X

This is a cross compilation of MinGW on Mac OS X.

A package installs all files in the given intallation directory, for example in /usr/local/i386-mingw32-3.4.5for release 2 for Intel Mac.

All tools are located in the bin sub directory. You can add this path to your $PATH shell variable, or invoke the tools with their full path name: for example /usr/local/i386-mingw32-3.4.5/bin/i386-mingw32-gcc for gcc. Note tool names always begin by i386, even for Power PC: for example, /usr/local/ppc-mingw32-4.3.0/bin/i386-mingw32-gcc.

You can find some sample code in MinGW sample code page.

MinGW Binaries for ppc

Binaries for pcc should work on Mac OS X.3 and later.

Version

3 (february 2009)
MinGW 4.3.0
C, C++, Objective-C, Objective C++, Java, Fortran
MinGW 4.3.0 for Mac OS X (PPC).pkg.tar.bz2 (38.3 MB)
/usr/local/ppc-mingw32-4.3.0/

MinGW 3.4.5
C, C++, Objective-C, Java, Ada, Fortran 77
MinGW-3.4.5-for-Mac-OS-X-ppc.tar.bz2 (38.3 MB)
/usr/local/i386-mingw32-3.4.5/

1 (december 2005)
MinGW 3.4.4
C, C++, Objective-C, Java, Ada, Fortran 77
MinGW-3.4.4-for-Mac-OS-X-ppc.tar.bz2 (37 MB)
/usr/local/i386-mingw32-3.4.4/

Yes, it is an error, ppc binaries for versions 1 and 2 install in an i386… directory.

Compiling for Linux on MacOS X

You can find here older releases of cross compilers for i386 Linux

This is a cross compilation of GCC on Mac OS X.

A package installs all files in the given installation directory. Within the installed directory, the contents.txt file contains the detail of cross-compiled archives.

All tools are located in the bin sub directory. You can add this path to your PATH shell variable, or invoke the tools with their full path name: for example /usr/local/gcc-4.5.2-for-linux32/bin/i586-pc-linux-gcc for gcc.

Note

For better portability of Linux tools built with theses cross compilation chains, invoke the linker with the -static option, for example:

  • /usr/local/gcc-4.5.2-for-linux32/bin/i586-pc-linux-gcc -static for C linking;

  • /usr/local/gcc-4.5.2-for-linux32/bin/i586-pc-linux-g++ -static for C++ linking.

Source packages and build instructions can be found here.
