GNU Compiler Collection
(Redirected from GCC)
The GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) is part of the GNU toolchain and includes front ends for C and C++.
Installation
Other available front-ends are:
- gcc-ada for Ada
- gcc-d for D
- gcc-fortran for Fortran
- gcc-go for Go
- gcc-objc for Objective-C
Old versions
Old versions of GCC may be useful for historical curiosity, old projects that cannot be compiled on the current versions, or for testing the compatibility of projects:
- GCC 4.3: gcc43AUR
- GCC 4.4: gcc44AUR
- GCC 4.5: gcc45AUR
- GCC 4.6: gcc46AUR
- GCC 4.7: gcc47AUR
- GCC 4.8: gcc48AUR
- GCC 4.9: gcc49AUR
- GCC 5: gcc5AUR
- GCC 6: gcc6AUR
- GCC 7: gcc7AUR
- GCC 8: gcc8AUR
- GCC 9: gcc9AUR
- GCC 10: gcc10AUR
- GCC 11: gcc11AUR
Other front-ends for old versions of GCC may be found on the official repositories and the AUR by searching for gcc<version_without_period>, e.g. searching for gcc9 for GCC 9 front-ends.
Tip: Use the
CC (for C)[1] and CXX (for C++)[2] environment variables to specify which version of GCC will be used with e.g make or cmake. For example: $ export CC=gcc-11 CXX=g++-11
