This directory contains files that add/enhance support for the Texas Instruments MSP430 family of microcontrollers in open-source toolchains. The material incorporated is maintained in a git repository hosted at: git://mspgcc.git.sourceforge.net/mspgcc/mspgcc Build and install a complete toolchain by building each of the following tools in order: binutils gcc gdb msp430mcu msp430-libc The source for the first three is obtained by applying patches in this directory to the upstream distributions of the generic tools. The patches include information on how to build the distribution. msp430mcu provides C headers and binutils linker scripts for each of the over 300 microcontrollers in the MSP430 family. It is released as an independent package and can be obtained at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mspgcc/files/msp430mcu/msp430mcu-YYYYMMDD.tar.bz2 where YYYYMMDD is provided in the file msp430mcu.version in this release. A .zip file is available as well. msp430-libc provides C library routines. It is released as an independent package and can be obtained at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mspgcc/files/msp430-libc/msp430-libc-YYYYMMDD.tar.bz2 where YYYYMMDD is provided in the file msp430-libc.version in this release. A .zip file is available as well. ** Please report all problems with this toolchain on the mspgcc bug tracker at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=42303&atid=432701 **WARNING** The documentation portions of this package are in progress, and may be out of date in significant ways.
