gcc version 4.8.5
What is old about this, the 4.8.5 version of GCC was was released June 2015.
- lorenzhs 10y agoThe 4.8 series was originally released in March 2013. There have since been three major releases (4.9, 5, 6). GCC 4.8 is old.
- antocv 10y agoI didnt even know, Im happy with the toolchain, what am I missing from the latest gcc releases? Better colorful error output, more optimizations?
- microcolonel 10y agoThe code generation, especially on RISCs, has improved pretty dramatically between 4.8 and 6.2. You can expect to get better code size with a newer toolchain. That said, there's a good chance it's not too hard to forward port the patches; I'm not aware of any major rearchitecting between 4.8 and 6.2, then again maybe there's been one.
- Something1234 10y agoSince when does gcc give out colorful output, and how do I get it to do it all the time?
- antocv 10y agoAdd this flag to it -fdiagnostics-color=always If you dont want to mess with gcc flags in all your projects, add the GCC_COLORS env variable to your shell, like just export GCC_COLORS='error=01;31:warning=01;35:note=01;36:caret=01;32:locus=01:quote=01'` to your ~/.bashrc or other shell rc.
