Pandora Toolchain for Mac OS X?

[RodrigoCard]

I was wondering if there is any OpenPandora cross-compiler toolchain available for Mac OS X....
Is there?

Thank you

1. install Debian in a VM and you have a plethora of toolchains
2. build your own through http://crosstool-ng.org
3. You could try my prebaked, Jessie compatible gcc 4.9.2 toolchain which I use to compile the Pyra kernels: http://download.goldelico.com/quantumstep/Xtoolchain/packages/ but it is not actively maintained and documented

http://cloudef.pw/dchrt.html Wally may or may not have the toolchain anymore, but in README are step-by-step for creating one for OS X and even config for crosstool provided if it still works.

Also, sebt3 is still offering his toolchain for download:
http://sebt3.openpandora.org/buildtools/ ; there pandora-toolchain-virtualbox-20110313.vdi.7z
It's a virtualbox vm, and virtualbox should be available for Max OS X.
That's what I used. I really can't say however, which of these options is the most developed (probably hns'); I can only say it was easy to get going with sebt3's.
sebt3's thread about it, imported from gp32x forum

How do you set this up?

I simply downloaded it and plopped the directories into my $HOME.

I added the 'bin' directory containing 'arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc', etc to my path.

When I make a project i get an error saying that size_t isn't defined. I've set up some extra "INCLUDES = -I$(HOME)/x86_64-apple-darwin15.0.0/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.9.2/include" to my project but I think there is something else missing.

hns method is likely not pandora specific enough, as likely it will have libraries not on the ancient SuperZaxxon environment.

Used to rock sebt3's crosscompiler setup for a long time, on linux I would install it directly, I had a linux VM running on my Mac for a bit. Then just migrated to using my 1GHz unit and the command line tools that reside with ptitseb's codeblocks PND, there is less of the complications that cross-compiling gives you when directly compiling on the Pandora.

Well I guess that's okay, I may just copy the includes and libs over from the Pandora and see how that goes. Just keep the gcc specific stuff and everything in /usr/include and /usr/lib.

Okay well I cobbled it together and it works. I created a $HOME/superzaxxon1_76/usr/lib, $HOME/superzaxxon1_76/usr/include and $HOME/superzaxxon1_76/lib which mimic the relevant Pandora’s directories. I copied the required *.h, *.a and *.so into these directories adjusted my makefile’s -I and -rpath-link and it built my binary.
Some of the *.so files are scripts (which contain paths) that also needed adjusting.
Copied the binary to my pandora and bam! Working toolchain.
