FB とクロス・コンパイル



Each fbc supports all targets

FreeBASIC コンパイラは、すべてのコンパイル目標をサポートします。
ホスト・システムごとに、1つの fbc をインストールするだけでよく、ネイティブ・プログラムだけでなく非ネイティブ・プログラムのコンパイルにも使えます。


Requirements for cross-compiling

The official FB release packages include an fbc capable of cross-compiling, but fbc alone is not enough.

1. Besides fbc, FreeBASIC consists of the FB runtime library (rtlib/libfb) and the FB graphics library (gfxlib2/libfbgfx). Additionally, FreeBASIC uses libraries from the MinGW, DJGPP or Linux GCC toolchains. All these libraries are precompiled for a certain target. You need a copy of the proper libraries for every compilation target you want to use.

2. FreeBASIC uses the assembler and linker (and sometimes even more tools) from the GNU binutils project to create binaries, and these may only support one target at a time. Depending on how they were built, they can also support multiple targets. Either way, you need the proper binutils for every compilation target you want to use.

To keep the official FB release packages small, they only include the libraries and tools needed for native development, but not for cross-compiling.

Example: Cross-compiling from Ubuntu GNU/Linux to Win32

Ubuntu offers official MinGW cross-compiling packages, which we can also use for FreeBASIC. The following describes the steps needed to set this up.

1. gcc/binutils cross-compiler toolchain

Install the gcc-mingw-w64 package and its dependencies. The exact package name could be different for different versions of Ubuntu. This should give you the gcc cross-compiler toolchain for targetting Win32 (and Win64 -- you can install the exact packages manually if you prefer to avoid installing the whole gcc-mingw-w64 and all of its dependencies.).

That includes the binutils and MinGW libraries, both of which fbc definitely needs for cross-compiling. It also includes the cross-compiling gcc, which fbc uses to look up the installation locations of the MinGW libraries. Besides that, gcc is obviously also needed if you want to use -gen gcc (such as when targetting 64bit which is currently only supported via -gen gcc).

The installed tools are called i686-w64-mingw32-as (MinGW cross assembler), i686-w64-mingw32-ld (MinGW cross linker), i686-w64-mingw32-gcc (MinGW cross gcc), etc. You can use them with fbc by specifying the common target prefix to the fbc -target option:

fbc foo.bas -target i686-w64-mingw32


This tells fbc to cross-compile using the system's i686-w64-mingw32 gcc/binutils toolchain and libraries.

2. Win32 FB libraries

Install Win32 FB libraries such that fbc can find them. For the -target i686-w64-mingw32 example from above, the directory where the Win32 FB libraries need to be is /usr/local/lib/freebasic/win32/, assuming fbc is installed at /usr/local/bin/fbc. You have two options to get them.

a) Copy the libraries from the official Win32 FB release package (or some other existing Win32 build of FB). Create the /usr/local/lib/freebasic/win32/ directory and copy the libraries into it. This should be safe as long as the Win32 FB libraries are from the same FB version as the FB-linux setup you have installed. However, if the Win32 libraries were created with a MinGW toolchain that is incompatible with the one from Ubuntu, then there can be errors.

b) Compile the Win32 FB libraries manually using Ubuntu's toolchain. Assuming you have the FB source code in fbc/, you can do:
cd fbc
make rtlib gfxlib2 TARGET=i686-w64-mingw32
sudo make install-rtlib install-gfxlib2 TARGET=i686-w64-mingw32

This should cross-compile the Win32 FB libraries using the i686-w64-mingw32 toolchain and install them into the proper directory in /usr/local. Again, here it is important to ensure that the used source code matches the version of the installed FB-linux setup.

To be completely safe and avoid FB version incompatibilities, you can build an entire FB setup from sources, including the Win32 cross-compiling libraries:

cd fbc
make
make rtlib gfxlib2 TARGET=i686-w64-mingw32
sudo make install
sudo make install-rtlib install-gfxlib2 TARGET=i686-w64-mingw32
