Greetings, Charles Wilson!
With cygwin-1.5.25 I can cross-compile libraries for native win32 by
starting with the following configure command:
./configure --host=i686-pc-mingw32 --build=i686-pc-cygwin CC='gcc
-mno-cygwin' host_alias=i686-pc-mingw32
and that has worked fine on the few occasions that I've tried it.
However, with cygwin-1.7.5, it doesn't work.
For now, use CC='gcc-3 -mno-cygwin'. Soon you'll be able to use a real,
honest-to-god cross compiler version of gcc-4 instead (e.g.
"i686-pc-mingw32-gcc")
Aww... now i'm struck with it.
Tried to compile http://www.acme.com/software/mini_httpd/
Installed gcc-mingw, it pulled up some additional packets including gcc
itself.
Then I ran make just for test. Cygwin build went fine, apart from htpasswd
(there's getline redefined in source), but I don't really need it.
Then tried to switch to mingw32 and...
$ gcc -b i686-pc-mingw32 -O -c mini_httpd.c
gcc: couldn't run `i686-pc-mingw32-gcc-3.4.4': No such file or directory
Tried the suggested gcc-3 -mno-cygwin, and got a whole bunch of unresolved
function names.
So... am I doing something wrong or it's not yet ready to do so?
Can you be more specific about what you did? For example, your original
post stated you could use 'gcc -mno-cygwin' when configuring back in the
days of 1.5.x. Are you saying that substituting 'gcc-3' for 'gcc' in that
invocation doesn't work with 1.7.x? If so, we need to see more details. See
