## XT Toolchain
|
|
|
|
|
This is a LLVM/Clang/LLD based mingw-w64 toolchain. It currently supports C and C++, and provides
|
|
|
|
|
a variety of tools including IDL, message and resource compilers. The XT Toolchain is also the
|
|
|
|
|
official build environment for compiling XT software, including the FerretOS. Currently, it is
|
|
|
|
|
targeted at Linux host only, however it should be possible to build it in MSYS2 as well.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Benefits of a LLVM based MinGW toolchain are:
|
|
|
|
|
* Single toolchain targeting all architectures (i686, x86_64, armv7 and aarch64),
|
|
|
|
|
* Support for generating debug info in PDB format,
|
|
|
|
|
* Support for targeting ARM/AARCH64 architectures and ability to produce Windows ARM binaries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This software includes:
|
|
|
|
|
* CMake
|
|
|
|
|
* LLVM
|
|
|
|
|
* Make
|
|
|
|
|
* Mingw-w64

## Licensing
|
|
|
|
|
The XTchain project includes the scripts for building and assembling a toolchain as well as wrappers
|
|
|
|
|
for LLVM tools and environmental shell. These are licensed under the GPLv3 license. It covers only
|
|
|
|
|
mentioned components that are provided by XTchain directly. For more information on that, refer to
|
|
|
|
|
the COPYING.md file. The final pre-built toolchain is covered by the licenses of the individual,
|
|
|
|
|
external projects. The full list of software incorporated into this toolchain is available in the
|
|
|
|
|
README.md file.
