If you can install Fedora 14 in a VM, then you can try their pre-built mingw32 build environment that can be installed from RPMs. See the Fedora Mingw project.The build environment likely already includes all needed libraries. Unfortunately, it only installs a 32-bit build environment. A newer package called Cross Compiler Framework will ship in Fedora 15 or 16, and will include targets for win32, win64, and Mac OSX (assuming legal issues are resolved). In any case, it would be best to first test the win32 build environment with something simple to make sure the build environment was not the issue, then tackle Bacula and the VSS code issues. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Xperia(TM) PLAY It's a major breakthrough.
