About:
GCC 10 is a stable release of the GNU Compiler Collection, providing frontends for C, C++, Objective-C, Fortran, Ada, Go, and D. It serves as a foundational toolchain for compiling source code into optimized machine code for a wide range of architectures. This version is particularly useful for projects requiring specific compiler features or ABI compatibility introduced in the GCC 10 series.
Key Features:
  • Supports multiple programming languages including C, C++, and Fortran
  • Advanced optimization levels for performance tuning
  • Strict standards compliance checking for code quality
  • Extensive architecture support for cross-compilation
Use Cases:
  • Compiling legacy software requiring GCC 10 specific behavior
  • Developing applications with strict C++20 standard compliance
  • Building software for embedded or specialized hardware targets
Alternatives:
  • gcc@11 – Newer major version with updated language standards support
  • llvm – Modular compiler infrastructure with clang frontend, often faster compilation
