Line 1: Line 1:
= Installing the GNU C compiler and GNU C++ compiler =

To install the '''gcc''' and '''g++''' compilers, you will need the {{{build-essential}}} package.

This will also install '''GNU make'''

= Installing the GNU Java compiler =

Note that GNU's Java compiler is not the same as the one developed and distributed by Sun Microsystems, and will not provide Java to the firefox browser. For that, please see ["Java"]. To install '''gcj''', the GNU Java compiler, install the following package: {{{gcj}}}.

'''gcj''' can be used to:
 1. compile .java files to bytecode (.class files)
 1. compile .java files to a linux-executable

To install the GNU Java bytecode interpreter, you need the {{{gij}}} package.

To have '''gcj''' compile to executables, install libgcj6-dev (otherwise an error during compilation occurs: libgcj.spec: No such file or directory).
Use '''synaptic''' to install libgcj6-dev.

= Installing the GNU Fortran compilers =

To install the GNU Fortran 77 compiler - '''g77''', you need the {{{g77}}} package.

To install the GNU Fortran 95 compiler - '''gfortran''', the package is: {{{gfortran}}}.

= Installing the GNU autotools =

To install '''autoconf''' and '''automake''', you need the {{{autoconf automake}}} packages.

Apt-get will tell you to explicitly choose a version of automake. If, for example, you decide to use automake1.9, you need to specify the version, such as the {{{automake1.9}}} package.
