Changing gcc library path

jon_k · 08-21-2004, 08:15 PM

By default my gcc compiles with the library location
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.3.2/include

What if I want it to compile with librarys located in
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/newarea/include

How can I do this?
Thanks,

you really can't do that
if you want to install another version of gcc and have it not be the system compiler then you can do --prefix=/somewhere/else
but otherwise those header files and the libs under them are etched it binary stone
gcc can be set up to do cross compiling for instance you can produce sparc code on an intel machine simply by setting the target switch thanks to that directory structure and you don't want those header files where other programs can find them or where gcc can't
