[Tinyos-help] Re: TinyOS on OS X

[Robert Taylor]

Not knowing which wiki to post to...

I got msp430-gcc working on my Intel mac by modifying build-mspgcc as follows:

- Changed the rcn servers to the URLs on Dan's site.
- Changed the cp -a parts to -pPR
- Changed the line ""$GCC_SRCDIR"/configure --target=msp430
--prefix="$INSTALL_DIR" || exit 1"
to
"$GCC_SRCDIR"/configure --target=msp430 --prefix="$INSTALL_DIR"
--host=powerpc-apple-darwin8.6.1 || exit 1

I know it's a total hack, but it appears that it creates valid
binaries. I've can compile various apps in $TOSROOT/apps and
$MOTEIV_DIR/apps with success. Moteiv's Trawler and Oscilloscope apps
both appear to produce valid results.

Regards,
Robert
