Bug 158239 – [toolchain-funcs.eclass] Cannot get cross-compiler version

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Roberto Castagnola 2006-12-15 12:28:17 UTC]

I'm trying to write a new ebuild using toolchain, but I can't get cross-compiler version. Shouldn't 
  $(gcc-major-version mingw32)
give me mingw32-gcc version? Instead I get native-compiler version.

$(gcc-major-version) expands down to $(tc-getCC) which respects CHOST/CC ... so if you were to set CHOST/CC properly before calling $(gcc...) functions, it'd work

only reason i'd be hesitant about adding support to $(gcc...) functions for taking an argument of the CHOST is that it'd probably be abused ...

it should be easy though to pass down "$@" in all the $(gcc...) functions though
