You may also want to look at wine (www.winehq.org). IIRC they have a number
of libraries to aid in compiling windows programs in Linux. They also have a
tool that can act as a sort of emulation layer for Windows programs under
Linux without recompiling your program through means of implementing the
windows API for Linux.

P.S. I know that technically speaking Wine Is Not an Emulator, but even the
wine guys use the term to describe what it does in practice.

Visual C++ is a Microsoft IDE for Windows.  Source code written in it is
usually within the C++ language.

1. C++ isn't a managed language (i.e. something that will generate CIL
which Mono can execute).

2. C++/CLI *is* a managed language, but it can only be used with Visual
Studio.NET 2005.  There is no current way to compile C++/CLI code on any
flavor of Linux.  (Then there are the myriad issues with trying to run
C++/CLI assemblies under Mono, which isn't trivial...)

Consequently, it's unlikely that Mono can help in any way.

If your C++ code is portable -- i.e. no ties to Win32 APIs -- then you
could probably use g++ to compile it, but (again) that's not Mono.
