Automake wii support

Post by LCID Fire » Mon May 25, 2009 5:50 pm

As I'm currently trying to port a bigger app to the Wii I have to figure out how to compile the whole thing via automake (which doesn't seem supported right now).
One of the first problems I'm encountering is that

Code: Select all

./configure --host=powerpc-gekko
is not working since config does not know powerpc-gekko.
I'm not even sure whether I'm trying the right names since my knowledge of the config system is near to zero. Could someone perhaps give me some insight in how this would have to be handled for the Wii?
A wild guess is that the config triplet would have to look like powerpc-gekko-eabi - which does work with config - but the names of the compiler in devkitppc are then wrong *confused*
Any other minefield in the autotools area where you'd expect problems?

There's quite a bit of discussion on this subject in this thread.
