Cross-compiling fltk with mingw on linux, for use on a win32 box, is readily do-able - it just doesn't work with the fltk configure script (which is intended to do cross-platform native compilation - making it do cross-platform cross-compilation is a bit more of an ask...!). All you have to do is generate (by hand, usually) a "makinclude" file that correctly defines your cross-compilation environment, and a "config.h" file that is appropriate for a mingw/win32 target. Most of this has been discussed before, either in this list or more likely over in fltk.general - I imagine that a trawl through the archives might find something. I'm pretty sure some hardy soul posted worked examples of suitable makeinclude and config.h files that could be used. I don't know what search term is most likely to find a usable hit, however! FWIW, I gave up on cross-compiling. It was more hassle than just building the code on a win32 box (they are so cheap these days anyway), and just because it could be done wasn't enough reason to go on doing it! -- Ian SELEX Sensors and Airborne Systems Limited Registered Office: Sigma House, Christopher Martin Road, Basildon, Essex SS14 3EL A company registered in England & Wales.
