Cross-development tools in the Cygnus Developer's Kit are normally installed with names that reflect the target machine, so that you can install more than one set of tools in the same binary directory.
The target name, constructed with the --target
option to
configure
, is used as a prefix to the program name.
For example, the compiler (called simply gcc
in native configurations) is called by one of these names:
m68k-coff-gcc
m68k-aout-gcc
Likewise, the m68k
-configured GDB is called by one of these names:
m68k-coff-gdb
m68k-aout-gdb
For DOS-hosted toolchains, the tools are simply called by their
standard names, e.g., gcc
, gdb
, etc.
