I have forgotten how to modify the gcc binaries to change the error message format. Does anyone know how to do this?
It used to involve editing the binary to change a printf format arg.
I am switching to devkitarm and would like to change these binaries.
This is needed so that I can double click on an error message in MSVC++ and be taken directly to the offending line in the source file.
Thanks,
cesium

Use a perl script to alter the output. Do not alter your binaries.

Can anyone actually answer the question that was asked?
Can you provide a solution rather than a sermon?
Can you help me achieve a specific, well defined, clearly stated goal?
If so, please reply.
cesium,

I'm sorry, I must have prematurely assumed that your goal was to get error messages in MSVC format. Perhaps someone here can help you achieve your actual goal of editing binaries.

Write a program in Perl or another text processing language that takes GCC-format error messages on standard input and produces MSVC-format error messages on standard error output. Then pipe GCC's stderr through that program.
