Description

Every once in a while I need to compile a program with GCC, instead of the default FreeBSD compiler Clang. To accomplish this I install the latest GCC and set it over Clang with environment variables.

  • Install GCC:
    pkg install gcc49
    • (Optional) Install GCC from the ports tree:
      cd /usr/port/lang/gcc49
make install clean
  • Set the CC, CXX, and CPP environment variables to use GCC:
    setenv CC gcc49
setenv CXX g++49
setenv CPP cpp49
    • (Optional) Environment variables can be set at build time:
      env CC="gcc49" CXX="g++49" CPP="cpp49" CFLAGS="-std=c++11" make
