IS there a recommended way to keep Microsoft Windows related code and libraries isolated from cygwin dependent code and libraries?
I am using "/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc" etc, which came from cygwin's setup program. I created a development directory /msys short for Microsoft system which will hold MS Windows specific files, binaries, and libraries etc. For example I will need to install a MS Windows gtk+2.x. Cygwind setup places mingw64 programs into cygwins /usr/bin which is mainly cygwin specific programs. My concern is in building a program that I'd get a result (since using cygwin environemetn) and getting a result that depends on the cygdll. I assume that mingw does use posix file pathnames. I need to to install a MS Windows perl interpreter. Does anyone have recommendations here. Preferable one which will accept posix pathnames and convert them to MS Windows based one if necessary. Any advice about keeping the two systems: cygwin dll dependent and windeows dependend would be appreciated appreciated. thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
