Toolchain usage in docker
Toolchain usage in docker
I’m using docker setup to run the application with GNU toolchain for renesas (GCC for Renesas 4.8.4.201803-GNURX Linux Toolchain) in an isolated environment, so that everyone who intend to build the application shall not need to install all tools and dependencies again.
The linux toolchian installer requires email and activation code to install, wherein I’ve used my personal credentials. I would like to push my docker setup (along with toolchain) to github.
Can anyone please confirm whether the pre-built toolchain usage as mentioned above is as per GNU Tools terms of use.
Is there any other process available for the usage of pre-built toolchain without the email and activation code?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to us!
Indeed, the toolchains source code is free to distribute since it is governed by a GPL licence. However, the toolchain installer itself is is free to download and use, only if you have an active account (free to register) on the gcc-renesas.com platform. If you want to re-distribute it, please make sure that you are redirecting the end-users to gcc-renesas.com for creating an account, a mandatory step for installation. For more details about this, please visit our Terms of Use page found here: https://llvm-gcc-renesas.com/privacy-policy/#terms
Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.
