[A83] Re: Z88DK vs. SDCC




I'm not exactly clear on why SDCC would need to be ported. All that has to
be done to SDCC is add some Z80 libraries (in ASM, they already exist in C
obviously), fix a few compiler bugs, and write up some peephole
optimizations. This seems easier than taking the parts of SDCC that are good
and putting it into Z88DK, unless by a fluke we can just replace one source
file with another and they happen to use all the same conventions...

I was more pointing at porting SDCC, as since it is specialy made for 8bit
processors (primary target was/is the 8051, which has a minimum of 128
bytes RAM), and has already a Z80 frontend, plus it uses the 'same'
techniques as GCC (aka intermediate code etc.). But if you really want to
give it a try with GCC, you can best start at the ATMEL AVR port...
