# GCC @RELEASE@ Snapshot

The GCC Project makes periodic snapshots of the GCC source tree available to the public for testing purposes.

If you are planning to download and use one of our snapshots, then we highly recommend you join the GCC developers list. Details for how to sign up can be found on the GCC project home page.

> gcc @TEXT_DATE@ snapshot, includes all languages.

> gcc-core @TEXT_DATE@ snapshot, includes just the C front end and core compiler.

> gcc-g++ @TEXT_DATE@ snapshot, includes just the C++ front end and runtime.

> gcc-g77 @TEXT_DATE@ snapshot, includes just the F77 front end and runtime.

> gcc-java @TEXT_DATE@ snapshot, includes just the Java front end and runtime.

> gcc-objc @TEXT_DATE@ snapshot, includes just the Objective-C front end and runtime.

Diffs from @BRANCH@-@LAST_DATE@ are available in the diffs/ subdirectory.

When a particular snapshot is ready for public consumption the LATEST-IS- file is updated and a message is sent to the gcc list. Please do not use a snapshot before it has been announced that way.

Old snapshots can be found on the ftp server ftp://gcc.gnu.org:/pub/gcc/snapshots.
