[Rpcemu] Foreign Characters in HostFS

Hi all,

You may remember a while ago I pointed out about spaces in filenames being changed for %A20 (or something similar) with HostFS. This was expertly, and quickly, fixed. However, I have found another - it's the accented 'e', as used for Archimedes Elite (!elite), which means one can't install and run Elite on HostFS…although I'm not entirely sure it'll run on RISC OS 5.2 anyway.

Cheers,

Gerald.

[gccsdk] Mirroring riscos.info SVN repos on github

In spare moments recently I've been doing various behind-the-scenes work on
the riscos.info infrastructure. In particular we now have a much more
powerful backend server for Jenkins builds - we now (attempt to) build
all the packages in the autobuilder in 20 hours. I'm working on getting the
built packages accessible in a form that PackMan can use, but the current
list of successful build products isn't large.

One question arising from my onward todo list. Does anyone object if I
mirror the SVN repos stored on riscos.info to a riscos-dot-info organisation
on Github? The main motivation is to ensure resilience in the case of
failure, either of hardware, backups or me. I don't intend to move away
from using riscos.info SVN as the primary interface to the source trees -
commits should still use that, and nothing will change in terms of workflows
or accessing it from RISC OS.

It's likely to also raise the profile of the projects - we don't allow
crawling of webSVN by search engines because they make a mess of it and
thrash the server, while Google et al index github reasonably well. In
addition, git's distributed nature means that everyone who clones a git
project has the full history, further building resilience.

I'll make sure it's clear SVN is the primary and they have links to the
relevant pages on riscos.info, so there's no confusion.

Let me know if there's any issues. If you have an SVN repo on riscos.info
and don't want it to be mirrored, please indicate this.

Thanks
Theo

I added the following to my Choices file, I wasn't sure what value to
use.

curl_fetch_timeout:100

The ccr-explorers page then rendered successfully.


It would be nice to find what causes the slow Fetch on the
Atari.

Re: [gccsdk] GNUGCC Gfortran for RISC OS

Hi John

IThanks for the info, I am happy to give it a go as I have the cross compiler on a linux box.  Currently in the Whitsundays doing a sailing course but will work on it when I get back.   Will let you know how I get on.

best wishes

Norman

Possibly.  Maybe one of the GCCSDK developers have time & interest to try it out for you (unfortunately I don't).

In case you want to try it yourself : initially you want to know how feasible this all is, so the idea is to get the fortran compiler first working & validated as cross-compiler (so not natively running on RISC OS but running on, typically, a Linux host).  As start, you need to be able to cross-compile GCCSDK GCC as it is right now (see http://www.riscos.info/index.php/Using_GCCSDK).

If you're able to do that, then add fortran to GCC_LANGUAGES in Makefile enabling the fortran frontend build (it's probably a good idea leave out C++ for the time being as this will just burn build time and not relevant for the investigation).  In order to further limit build times, you can temporary reduce the number of runtime libraries and module/soft/hard float flavours.  I believe you can just do this by making the MULTILIB_* variables empty at recipe/files/gcc/gcc/config/arm/t-arm-riscos-elf.  This should by default result in UnixLib & softfloat combo.

In best possible scenario this will just give you the fortran cross-compiler which you can then try out if it really works as expected.  After that you can build the RISC OS compiler with the fortran frontend enabled, adjust the RISC OS packaging script (create-gcckit) so that the extra fortran related files end up in the resulting zip files which then can be packed out on RISC OS.  In principle this should give you a recent RISC OS port of gfortran.

John.

Chris didn't say what platform he's using. But here on RiscOS (to my
surprise) the page loads and displays quite quickly with Javascript
off, a bit slower (I think) with Javascript on. Netsurf #3538.
