FYI: GCC 4.5.0 on Mingw.org

[reckless]

sounds plausible seing as mingw64 eventually will run into this problem at some time also (damn more patching)  :lol:

[idblew]

It will work on Windows 64-bit (tested and confirmed working), but not on Windows 32-bit unless you specify the /3GB swtich in BOOT.INI (untested)

Hi,

I was able to compile wxwidgets 2.8.11 with gcc-4.5.0, however, the minimal application crashes with 0xc00000005 error (app not properly initialized).
Windows XP professional service pack 3 on a Pentium 4 CPU 2.8GHz 1GB RAM.

Does anybody was able to get wx working with mingw gcc-4.5.0-1 release (2010-04-19 in source forge) ?
Should I try to use a version from the version control repository ? I do not see a 4.5.0-2 in the souceforge download site.

Any suggestion is very much welcome. Thanks !
Mau.

a few of us have uploaded versions of gcc-4.5.0 and binutils-0.20.1 with this fixed i have a version and loaden has one loadens is probably the easiest to get going with since mine uses a different runtime than mingw and relies on sysroots.

[Loaden]

4.5.1 released.
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.5/

[ptDev]

4.5.1 released.
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.5/

From the change list:

This is the list of problem reports (PRs) from GCC's bug tracking system that are known to be fixed in the 4.5.1 release. This list might not be complete (that is, it is possible that some PRs that have been fixed are not listed here).

All languages

GCC's new link-time optimizer (-flto) now also works on a few non-ELF targets:

Cygwin (*-cygwin*)
MinGW (*-mingw*)
Darwin on x86-64 (x86_64-apple-darwin*)
LTO is not enabled by default for these targets. To enable LTO, you should configure with the --enable-lto option.

nice

If these are C::B patches, then yes. Otherwise: No. We don't have endless forums space you know. But you can surely use a filesharing homepage for this...

[reckless]

also uploaded latest version on http://code.google.com/p/mingw-wine look for mingw-w32.exe (kgb self extracting archive. done due to site size limit issue).

will make a diff of my modifications to the mingw64 runtime (rather simple really just removes using mingw path/host/include and lib etc. and instead use gcc's include and lib paths).

binutils 2.20.51 from mingw.org includes the patches allready

gcc was patched with johns patches for tdm and the lto patch.

crt includes directx and ddk. note the ddk from mingw64 has some headers in other places than the ddk from mingw so you may have to doublecheck your code if you need the ddk.

skipped java in this build as its pretty broken atm on win32. left ada in as it might be handy and it works.

works very well so far

hmm spoke to soon wxwidgets cant be compiled as a monolithic dll again with 4.5.1 they changed the code so the patch to undo it can not be applied ouch.

looks like they tried to get smart about checking if inline was really needed commendable but its broken with wxwidgets  :lol:
