Re: gcc wrapper for MSVC

2013-03-14 Thread Tor Lillqvist 
By the way, ten years or so ago I was also hacking (occasionally) on a
MSVC wrapper that would emulate gcc's command line syntax and options.

I never got enthusiastic enough to get it working well enough to be
usable for what I intended. It used to live in GLib's sources, as
build/win32/cl-wrapper.c I think. it is no longer there, but googling
for cl-wrapper.c turns up various copies of various versions (and
perhaps with enhancements by others) that have been adopted by other
projects (which is nice, I didn't know that;).

So that might give some inspiration, although the basic working of
that cl-wrapper.c is probably totally different from what you are
planning.

gcc wrapper for MSVC

2013-03-07 Thread Peter Foley 
All,

I wanted to give you a heads-up that I've decided to take a shot
at creating a gcc wrapper for MSVC. (see
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Gsoc/Ideas#Gcc_like_wrapper_for_MSC_on_cygwin_and_autotools_compatibility
)

I'll be using the feature/gccwrapper branch.

Thanks,

Peter

I wonder about how hard would it be to go the other way, to teach
autotools about the msvc toolchain.

Looks like the automake/autoconf people have been working on that:
