Hi,
I have decided to try to cross compile to windows again, as I see it
here are my options:
1) build mingw for plan9
This means getting gcc to compile under kenc - non-trivial
2) build lcc on plan9
ditto
3) build pcc for plan9
ditto (though nothing like as bad as the above)
sadly pcc needs yasm or mingw-as + mingw ar and mingw ld so I
don't win much.
4) write a parser to understand windows header files and generate
assembly wrappers so I can use kenc. Then I just need to build
a PE executable backend.
4 seems the most attractive, however I believe all windows executables
are still relocatable, but this feature is rarely used by the XP/Win2k3 etc.
anyone know any more.
anyone know of any other (simpler) options?
I guess my ultimate sanction might be mingw for Linux running under linuxemu
though this feels a bit of a copout.
