My partner and I are doing a project involving SimpleScalar. We need
to make a program of our own to use with sim-cache. I'm under the
impression it's a simple matter of creating an executable with
"ssbig-na-sstrix-gcc". However, I have no idea where to get this
compiler. It's not in simplesim, simpletools, or simpleutils (as far
as we know).

How and where can we get this compiler?

Visit www.simplescalar.com
download the gcc-2.7.2.3.ss.tgz
compile and install .
That's all

According to www.simplescaler.com (Download Tools section) it must be in
simpletools. However, the page seems quite dated, as it calls GCC 2.7.2 "a
newer version of GNU GCC". It's ten years old, released June 29, 1996.

You'll have a hell of a time compiling GCC 2.7 with a modern GCC.

Okay, thanks for the help, but it's not compiling. I'm trying to
compile it on an i686 linux machine (ubuntu I think). I would've
compiled it on a solaris machine but I couldn't get simplescalar to
compile on solaris.

I'm getting errors on "insn-output.c". The first error is a missing
double-quote character and almost all of the others are stray '\'
errors. Well, the extra back-slash errors are all on the same line but
it spits it out like 50 times.
