Re: [ts-7000] Cross-compiling question

[Larry <>]

What you are proposing to do won't work even if you
trick make into letting you do it.
The compiler must also know the architecture, so there would have
to be a separate make file tree for each architecture as well.
configure does much of the architecture detect work automatically,
so you would have to override this to create the non native make tree, etc.
In my opinion what you are proposing would be very complex to set up.

I recommend a book "Building Embedded Linux Systems" by Karim Yaghmour
It has an in depth description on how to set up a cross development environment
as well as how to set up multiple cross development environments for supporting
multiple versions of code.

I need to build a library for two different architectures - x86 and
ARM. The library's source has a configure script. I can create a
subdirectory called 'x86' and execute '../configure' and then 'make'
and the object files are all in the x86 directory but the libraries
all still go into the base lib directory. How can I get the resulting
libraries to be built into different folders for different
architectures? A directory structure similar to:

myLib
|-- include
|-- src
|-- lib
| |- x86
| -- arm
|- x86
-- arm
