Gcc on Mac OS X has this great "arch" flag.
They support four values for it and you can pass any number of them on the
command line:
ROUGHLY:
echo int main() { printf("hello\n"; return 0;} > hello.c
gcc -arch ppc -arch i386 -arch pp64 -arch x86_64 hello.c
otool a.out
=> quad fat
(this is from memory)
ld has a similar flag.
Sometimes I gather gcc is looping, calling tools multiple times, or multiple
tools, sometimes maybe the tools have their own loops. I think it is more
gcc looping.
I've always wanted compilers/lnkers to work this way. :)
It eliminates or hides one axis in the two dimensional cross build matrix.
(and really, each back end should be a .lib/.dll/.so, nicely integrated so
you have one front end per host, n backends per host, not some big n x m
matrix...)
Of course when you have, say, syntax or type errors, it is a waste to
attempt more than one build at a time.
