[Fwd: some question about CrossGCC]


 


Dear Jonathan,
 
I have some questions about the Cross Compiler:
I build the development tools for eCos follow the instructions from Red Hat, my target is a pc mother-board.
The build procedure consists of these steps:
1.build and install the binutils;
2.add the path where the binutils resident in to the PATH environment path;
3.build and install gcc;
4.build eCos;
 
so my question is:
1.the binutils is target-dependent, the bintuils I've built and the pre-built one have the same name(eg, all as is "as"), so how can the newly-compiled gcc find the correct binutils? 
 
2.I have look at the binutils built for ppc, and I found all of them has a prefix:"ppcXXX", so how can the gcc find them? the gcc can determine the correct prefix of binutils commands?
 
that's all, thanks in advance.
