The current build process supports gcc 3 through 5. If you want to build with a different compiler, it's up to you to understand the build process, the particular requirements of CHDK and the options for your chosen compiler. In any case, this has nothing to do with windows GUI, because suitable compilers are available in the first post.

So instead of actually trying to fix the issue with the linker from GCC9, your solution is to bodge together a totally unsupported scenario by using the linker from GCC4 with the compiler from GCC9

Seriously, if you want to help, learn how the process works and look for meaningful and useful solutions.

The linker fix for GCC9 is trivial - you only need to remove the '--no-define-common' option in the loader/makefile_loader.inc file.

And yes, you can build DIGIC 6 & 7 cameras with GCC9; but this is of no use to the auto build system and for anyone with multiple cameras it just makes things harder to be switching GCC version all the time.
Apart from a few compiler warnings that should be fixed, there is no advantage to using GCC9. It does not produce any better code - in fact the final CHDK size is slightly larger with GCC9 vs GCC5.

Thx, works too, should have done a global search...

Catching unk. issues is my intention, gcc621 seems the right spice for verbose Assembler...

Strange news from this basecamp...
gcc 10 seems to have lost a feature that works until gcc 9.x

Code: [Select]

// tokenizer.h (any version)
 char  bug_since_gcc[10];

@Caefix

Check this out for an explanation, and try:

Quote

extern char bug_since_gcc[10];

for all 'char bug_since_gcc[10];' declarations except 1

The post above was moved from "Windows GUI for gcc toolchain" on request in mod report.

If you want to report a problem or get help with something, please explain in specific, simple terms what it is. Emojis and wordplay aren't helpful.

I guess you are saying gcc 10 doesn't work for vxworks cameras, as whim reported, but this is far from obvious from the contents of your post.
