Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Reply-To: dhlii@dlasys.net List-Id: Linux on PowerPC Developers Mail List List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Does anyone have experience sugestions for building ppc/linux apps or even ppc kernels under windows. I work (and live) under Linux. I am very happy to work under Linux. I only spend about 20 minutes a week in windows anymore. But I have coworkers, and clients that live under windows. Mostly I have them working under coLinux, but even that seems to be too much for many of them. I have been able to mangle my build environment to work under msys and use the xilinx edk cross compiler to build standalone PPC apps, But the libraries do not seem to be present for linux applications. I build my own uclibc crosscompiler under linux from buildroot. Has anyone got experience doing that under windows ? Can I just copy the appropriate library binaries and use them with the xilinx EDK cross compiler ? Presumably I need to match versions of GCC. Other suguestions ?
