Why do you think you don't have this today? Install /usr/ports/lang/gcc/gcc43. It lives nicely beside the base compiler. Anytime you want to use it - set 'CC' to 'gcc43'. I guess you're asking for some auto choosing of which compiler to use? -- -- David (obrien_at_FreeBSD.org)Received on Mon Jan 12 2009 - 15:26:05 UTC
