There had been a few problems remaining, and those are now squashed. - So shared libs on powerpc should be working fully now. - - <p> - <li> <b>14 November 2001, m68 compiles again, Large file support working</b> - <br> - About a month ago I synced the header files with glibc 2.2.4 for better - C++ support and better standards compliance. I forgot to sync up m68k, - sparc, powerpc, and mipsel. Dave Schleef fixed powerpc while he was fixing - up the shared lib loader. I just fixed up m68k, sparc, and mipsel so they - should all compile again. - <p> - I also finished up fixing large file support (just enable DOLFS in your - Config file to enable it) and it is working just great, and greatly increases - the number of glibc applications that will work "out-of-the-tarball" without - needing any changes. - - - <li> <b>12 November 2001, powerpc shared lib support</b> - <br> - Thanks to David Schleef, uClibc now has full shared library support - on powerpc. This brings full shared library support to x86, ARM, and - now powerpc. Thanks Dave! - - - <p> - <li> <b>7 November 2001, uClibc application list</b> - <br> - uClibc now has a <a href="http://uclibc.org/uClibc-apps.html">list of applications</a> - that are known to work. If you have any applications to add to the - list, submissions are welcome! - - - <p> - <li> <b>18 October 2001, buildroot uClibc example system</b> - <br> - - Those wanting an easy way to test out uClibc and give it - a test drive can download and compile - <a href="ftp://uclibc.org/buildroot.tar.gz">buildroot.tar.gz</a>. This - is a nifty buildsystem that will automagically download and build - a <a href="http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/">User-Mode Linux</a> - kernel, and will then download source for and compile up a fully - working uClibc based root filesystem. This should make it easy for - people to create their own projects. I hope that this build system - will allow people to more easily use and build uClibc based systems. - As an example of how nicely this works, the - <a href="http://tuxscreen.net/">Tuxscreen Project</a> is using a - <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/tuxscreen/buildroot-tux/">slightly adjusted variant of the buildroot system</a> to cross - compile the blob bootloader, linux kernel, and a uClibc based jffs2 - root filesystem (busybox, tinylogin, udhcp, lrzsz, pcmcia-cs and - microwindows) for ARM. Pretty cool. - - - - <p> - <li> <b>11 October 2001, v850 architecture support</b> - <br> - - Miles Bader has contributed support for the v850 architecture. - - - <p> - <li> <b>25 Spetember 2001, header files updated</b> - <br> - - uClibc's header files are now in sync with glibc 2.2.4, - allowing better standards compliance, better portibility, and - better C++ support. - - <p> - <li> <b>4 July 2001, ARM shared library support</b> - <br> - - uClibc now has full shared library support on ARM. - - - <p> - <li> <b>9 May 2001, libm added</b> - <br> - - uClibc now has a very complete math library. - - - <p> - <p> <li> <b>9 May 2001, ld.so added</b> - <br> - - uClibc now has a native ld.so. It currently is only ported to work on x86, - but porting to other architectures should not be too difficult. - - - <p> <li> <b>15 March 2001, powerpc port added</b> - <br> - - David Schleef contributed a powerpc port, which is now in CVS. - - <p> <li> <b>19 February 2001, SH port added</b> - <br> - - Jean-Yves Avenard contributed an SH port. See his email - with the initial patch <a href="http://uclibc.org/lists/uclibc/2001-February/000409.html">here</a>. - - <p> <li> <b>16 January 2001, uClibc as a shared library</b> - <br> - - As if January 16, uClibc can now be used (at least on x86) as a shared - library. See the <a href="http://uclibc.org/lists/uclibc/2001-January/000126.html">email</a> - announcing this achievement. - - <p> <li> <b>11 January 2001, gcc wrapper added</b> - <br> - - Manuel Novoa III has created a wrapper for gcc that makes compiling apps vs uClibc - as simple as just setting "CC" to gcc-uClibc-< arch>. This even works when cross - compiling! Very cool. - - <p> <li> <b>3 January 2001, uClibc now has a web page</b> - <br> - - A lot of work has been going on under the hood with uClibc, - so I decided to put together this webpage to let the world know - that it exists and is getting to be very usable. - - -</ul> - <!-- Begin TODO section --> <TR><TD BGCOLOR="#ccccc0" ALIGN=center> |
