A gcc-2.95.x toolchain will also be released + shortly, but is not yet ready. At this time, only source code and + a Makefile for the native uClibc toolchain is being released (i.e. + no binaries, sorry). Source code can be downloaded + <a href="downloads/toolchain/">here</a>, + but be aware that the source code is 27 MB. + <p> + To build the toolchain, simply grab the source, edit the Makefile + to select where you would like the toolchain installed. Then + run 'make' and wait for it to compile. If you do not have a copy + of uClibc already, it will download the latest daily snapshot. + + + <p> + <li> <b>21 March 2002, uClibc 0.9.10 Released!</b> + <br> + + CodePoet Consulting is pleased to announce the immediate + availability of uClibc 0.9.10. This release adds pthreads support + (including pthreads support for mmu-less systems!). Additionally, + thanks to Manuel Novoa III, we now have a completely new stdio + library, which is small, standards compliant, supports pthreads, + wide/narrow streams, large files, and can even operate in a + low-memory unbuffered mode. Many, many bugs have been fixed and a + number of additional applications now compile and run perfectly. + Even with all these changes, uClibc continues to be very small. + On x86, a default build of the uClibc C library is still just 168k. + + <p> + + To make things more interesting, the release also adds support for + C++ constructors and destructors. To make it easy to use uClibc + when developing C++ applications, this release also provides a + wrapper for the GNU C++ compiler. Of course, for more complex C++ + applications, such as those using iostreams, a standard C++ library + (libstdc++) is required. A native GNU toolchain (binutils/gcc) that + provides libstdc++ linked with uClibc 0.9.10 will be released in the + next couple of days, so stay tuned. + + <p> + The <a href="downloads/Changelog">Changelog</a> + and <a href="downloads/uClibc-0.9.10.tar.bz2">Source code</a> + for this release are available <a href="downloads/">here</a>. + <p> + + + <p> + <li> <b>4 February 2002, uClibc 0.9.9 Released!</b> + <br> + + CodePoet Consulting is pleased to announce the immediate + availability of uClibc 0.9.9. With this release, + <a href="uClibc-apps.html">just about + everything we have tested now compiles and runs</a>. In fact, + there are now so many programs on the working application list that + rather than continue to add to this list, from now on we + will only be adding applications to the <em>not working list</em>. Most applications + on the <em>not working list</em> either require pthreads, or require + wide-character support. Work on wide-character support is + well underway, and will hopefully be moving into CVS in the next week or + two. Full pthreads support and rentrancy are on the TODO list + and are expected to be complete in the next couple of months. + <p> + The <a href="downloads/Changelog">Changelog</a> + and <a + href="downloads/uClibc-0.9.9.tar.bz2">Source code</a> + for this release are available <a href="downloads/">here</a>. + <p> + One final bit on news -- as some of you may have noticed, uclibc.org + has been a bit overloaded and somewhat slow recently. The server should + be getting colocated tomorrow, which will eliminate the speed problem. + During the move, there may be some temporary disruption of service... + <p> + Have Fun! + + <p> + <li> <b>22 December 2001, uClibc 0.9.8 Released!</b> + <br> + + After many months of initial development, we are pleased to announce the + release of uClibc 0.9.8. This release should be quite solid, and is very + usable. This also, hopefully, marks a transition from a slow incubation + phase to a more methodical release cycle. From now one, there should be + approximately one release per month. + <p> + The source code for this release is available + <a href="downloads/">here</a>. + + + <p> <li> <b>26 November 2001, powerpc shared libraries fully working</b> <br> Dave Schleef finished off the the work needed for shared library support on |
