Hi

Anyone know where I can get the source for vsprintf for the GCC compiler I am in need of it for a project based on U-Boot for the MCF54450

What I am exactly looking for is standard libraries written in C which would give me support for printing of doubles (i.e. atof, vsprintf with %f, etc..). I need the C source code so I can drop it into our current embedded system

Gregg

gcc doesn't have a vsprintf function - that's part of the C library, not the C compiler. So you want to look in the source code for a C library. Different C libraries have different licenses - you cannot take the vsprintf code from the gnu libc and paste it into your code unless your entire code is (L)GPL. An alternative source that might be a better choice is newlib (BSD-style license).

mvh.,
