devkitARM release 21

With much blood, sweat and tears we finally have a toolchain for DS Homebrew which works on Vista and Vista64 out of the box. There are several components to this new release including updates to libnds, the msys shell provided with devkitPro toolchains and the ever popular Programmer's Notepad. Head over to http://www.devkitpro.org to get the full details.

  • Upgraded to gcc 4.1.2
  • Added gdb by popular request
  • Now including libraries for ARM big-endian devices - this relates to a request from the winARM maintainers, not DS related.
  • Newlib patches extended to allow time() to work on the DS
  • argv has been added - this will require support from the homebrew launcher menu on various cards
  • ndstool now uses the default arm7 core distributed with libnds in preference to an embedded one
  • Now working on Vista/Vista64 - users who were impatient and modified paths should now remove those changes

Everything is available via the automated installer/updater as usual.
