GCC Releases

Download

Source code for GCC releases may be downloaded from our mirror sites.

Important: because these are source releases, they will be of little use to you if you do not already have a C compiler on your machine. If you don't already have a compiler, you need pre-compiled binaries. Our binaries page has references to pre-compiled binaries for various platforms.

You can also retrieve the current development sources using SVN.

GCC Timeline

The table is sorted by date; starting with version 3.3.4, the GCC project provides bug releases for older release branches for those users who require a very high degree of stability.

Please refer to our development plan for future releases, and an alternative view of the release history.
