It can be a lot easier if you have a Makefile-based build system, where you can do the conversion on things that you know need converting like $(SRC) and $(OBJS) and $(INCLUDEPATH) but not things like $(CFLAGS), rather than if you try and write shell scripts to wrap the compiler and parse the options. That can also be a good approach, but more work to get it completely right. cheers, DaveK -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
