[200] Cross Compile issues

[amenophiks]

Hi everybody,

I have some source code that I want to cross compile for C200.
In order to doing this, I realized my toolchain following the tutorial made by vaidyasr (and completed by other users) about creating a toolchain from scratch.

After a while, I had a GCC completely functional and my "Hello world" application works fine and I want to thank you for that !!!

As I said at the beginning, I have some source code to cross compile. This code uses libxml2. Under linux, no problem to compile and to execute.

To cross compile, I try to get libxml2.so and headers from C200, copy them on my Linux. But it doesn't work I have the following message : "/path/to/libxml2.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format"

So, I decided to get the latest release of the libxml2 and to cross compile it with my toolchain. I try a

Code:

export CFLAGS="-EL -march=74kc -fPIC"
export CC=/usr/local/mips-4.3/bin/mips-linux-gnu-gcc
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mips-4.3 --target=mips-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --enable-shared=yes

The libxml2.a is correctly generated, but nothing about libxml2.so

Can you help me about my problem ?
I think my issue is about the configuration of my project.

For information, my project is under an Eclipse IDE with generated Makefile (by eclipse).

Thanks for reading me

The LDFLAGS should be same as CFLAGS. Make sure the file format of the generated *.o file should say LSB (little endian) not MSB (big endian).

Thanks for the information. Now my program is generated.
Tests will be done tonight.

For the libxml2, shared library is still missing after cross compile step
