Re: Cross-development of Windows 32-bit applications under FreeBSD?
I don't know whether it is possible with only FreeBSD, however you can check whether you can run Visual Studio under the Wine emulator or use one of those cross-platform toolkits such as Qt or WxWidgets. The latter one will not give you Win32 binaries, but it's quite easy to port the code to Windows. Hope it helps. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm trying to avoid Visual(Anything) since it costs around $2900, and that's hard to justify for just playing around with little applications. -- Anthony ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

DJGPP is for making DOS programs, and if you can convince it to make a Windows program, good for you. how easy it would be to make windows executables I don't know. I would reckon your best bet would be to use something like lcc with some windows emulation, since you are going to want to test and debug it too. Even with that, I would feel very uncomfortable producing a windows program that I hadn't tested on a pure windows system.

Using MinGW, you can write windows apps using the tools you know from FreeBSD. I'm using it to cross-compile freebsd-amd64 apps for windows. Applications (e.g. filters) that stick to the functionality of the standard C library can be easily cross-compiled for Windows. It also comes with headers and import libraries for win32 graphical apps. Roland -- R.F.

Perhaps running cygwin under wine would help (if it is at all possible)? You'll probably need access to native Windows DLLs instead of the wine libs though. BTW, if you really want to write cross-platform apps, you may consider using Qt (not kde!) or wxWidgets. Just develop under FreeBSD as usual, and then compile against the Windows versions of the libraries (Beware: Qt requires for the Windows version last time I checked), using Cygwin, Borland C++ or Microsoft Visual C++ (under Wine, if you prefer and if it is possible).

In the last episode (Apr 10), Anthony Atkielski said: Is it possible to develop and build native Windows 32-bit applications under FreeBSD, using only command-line tools like gcc and other open-source components? Check out /usr/ports/devel/mingw , which will install a gcc cross-compiler targeted to build native win32 binaries. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
