Configuring the target

If you are targeting an embedded system, remember to specify the option,
--target=. The -target= value is printed on the CD-ROM or tape you receive from Cygnus Solutions. It will be a hyphenated string indicating target and output format. For example, mips64-elf and powerpc-eabi would be two such target output formats.

Note For VxWorks Users

To build a cross toolkit with the target board running the VxWorks from Wind River Systems, remember to add the --with-includes= command option to configure. There are header files with your VxWorks distribution.

If the VxWorks tools are in /opt/wrs/vxworks-5.2/, then the header files are probably in /opt/wrs/vxworks-5.2/h.
