Hi, I agree what you mention are valuable reasons. and I don't have time either :( Why not file a GSoC project to enhance this port LOL? Sebastien On Wed, Oct 13, 2010 at 3:23 PM, Jan Waclawek wrote: > Value of AVR port of SDCC would be the significantly higher flexibility of > SDCC than GCC,

Value of AVR port of SDCC would be the significantly higher flexibility of SDCC than GCC, in more then one aspect. While avr-gcc one one side enjoys the massive investment of various companies into GCC, e.g. through the aggressive early optimisations, it also suffers from GCC being targeted pri

Most probably because nobody was interested in taking up the challenge of completing and maintaining it. Underlying reason is probably the existence of avr-gcc. Maarten > But why AVR was abandoned? > It is a polular kind of MCU. > >> On 10/12/10 9:13 AM, Claude Sylvain wrote: >> > >I no

Hello, I would like to use SDCC in my project and the MCU of my board is AVR(ATmega8). I notice that the avr branch and z80 branch would not be maintained. But how is the quality of code generated by avr branch now?
