Question

I want to create a mobilesubstrate plugin for iPhone OS 3.2 or I tried to setup toolchain on the iPad device.
I have installed the iphone-gcc_4.2-20090304-1-9_iphoneos-arm package and all the relevant packages from Cydia, but when it comes to compiling the simplest source file shows the following error:

arm-apple-darwin9-g++ -I /var/toolchain/sys/ -c -dynamiclib ExampleHookLibrary.mm -o ExampleHookLibrary.o
arm-apple-darwin9-g++: Internal error: Bus error (program cc1objplus)
Please submit a full bug report.
See <URL:http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter> for instructions.
make: *** [ExampleHookLibrary.o] Error 1

Is it because the iphone-gcc doesn’t yet support this device or am I missing anything here? Thanks.

This script automatically setup iphone toolchain for you, runs on Mac OS X, thanks to @rpetrich. http://gist.github.com/403608

First, remember to
apt-get remove iphone-gcc
before running this thing on your mac, if you don’t want to collect headers files from iphone sdk, follow the Darwin arm part of the script and I think you should be good.
