| GCC is distributed via <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/svn.html">SVN</a> and FTP |
| tarballs compressed with <samp><span class="command">gzip</span></samp> or |
| <samp><span class="command">bzip2</span></samp>. It is possible to download a full distribution or specific |
| components. |
| |
| <p>Please refer to the <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/releases.html">releases web page</a> |
| for information on how to obtain GCC. |
| |
| <p>The full distribution includes the C, C++, Objective-C, Fortran, Java, |
| and Ada (in the case of GCC 3.1 and later) compilers. The full |
| distribution also includes runtime libraries for C++, Objective-C, |
| Fortran, and Java. In GCC 3.0 and later versions, the GNU compiler |
| testsuites are also included in the full distribution. |
| |
| <p>If you choose to download specific components, you must download the core |
| GCC distribution plus any language specific distributions you wish to |
| use. The core distribution includes the C language front end as well as the |
| shared components. Each language has a tarball which includes the language |
| front end as well as the language runtime (when appropriate). |
| |
| <p>Unpack the core distribution as well as any language specific |
| distributions in the same directory. |
| |
| <p>If you also intend to build binutils (either to upgrade an existing |
| installation or for use in place of the corresponding tools of your |
| OS), unpack the binutils distribution either in the same directory or |
| a separate one. In the latter case, add symbolic links to any |
| components of the binutils you intend to build alongside the compiler |
| (<samp><span class="file">bfd</span></samp>, <samp><span class="file">binutils</span></samp>, <samp><span class="file">gas</span></samp>, <samp><span class="file">gprof</span></samp>, <samp><span class="file">ld</span></samp>, |
| <samp><span class="file">opcodes</span></samp>, <small class="dots">...</small>) to the directory containing the GCC sources. |
