Hi Ion,
Two (crazy!) options:
- Compile with a new gcc, and ship the resulting .s files. Disadvantages: I doubt that the Boost build tools (etc.) are set up for this, and it won't let the atomic operations be inline.
- Compile with a new gcc, and copy-and-paste the assembler from the resulting .s file into asm statements.
Good idea. The only problem is that I have no access to a PowerPC machine (installing a cross-compiler is an option, but last time I tried to build one in cygwin I had no success). I think this could be done better someone that knows how to write asm (and that's not my case;-)). If there are no volunteers, I'll try to do it myself. Regards, Ion
