GCC_INCLUDE_DIR
means the same thing for native and cross. It is
where GNU CC stores its private include files, and also where GNU CC
stores the fixed include files. A cross compiled GNU CC runs
fixincludes
on the header files in `$(tooldir)/include
'.
(If the cross compilation header files need to be fixed, they must be
installed before GNU CC is built. If the cross compilation header files
are already suitable for ANSI C and GNU CC, nothing special need be
done).
GPLUS_INCLUDE_DIR
means the same thing for native and cross. It
is where g++
looks first for header files. libg++
installs only target independent header files in that directory.
LOCAL_INCLUDE_DIR
is used only for a native compiler. It is
normally `/usr/local/include
'. GNU CC searches this directory so
that users can install header files in `/usr/local/include
'.
CROSS_INCLUDE_DIR
is used only for a cross compiler. GNU CC
doesn't install anything there.
TOOL_INCLUDE_DIR
is used for both native and cross compilers. It
is the place for other packages to install header files that GNU CC will
use. For a cross-compiler, this is the equivalent of
`/usr/include
'. When you build a cross-compiler,
fixincludes
processes any header files in this directory.
