Let us begin with the preliminaries. I assume that you have
down loaded the source code of GCC. The different steps of
installation of GCC are given with it. But I add it here for
completeness.
Like most GNU software GCC must be configured before
it is built. Let the GCC source code be in a directory called
'srcdir'. Create a new directory 'objdir' where the GCC
is to be built. Create one more directory called 'local' where
the tools will be accumulated. Let our current directory be
/home/name. Now we have /home/name/srcdir, /home/name/objdir and
/home/name/local.
To configure GCC use the command
cd objdir
/home/name/srcdir/configure --prefix=/home/name/local/
When we complete the creation of our language add one
more option,
--enable-languages=demo
where demo is the new language we are going to develop.
The second step required is the building process. It is
accomplished with the command
make bootstrap-lean
The last step is the final installation procedure. It is
done with the command
make install
We can start our procedure of developing a new language.
