I think Cygwin is much too much overhead for just compiling a small application. I was told that I could take just the GCC package from Cygwin without installing all of it. "licensing fee for cygwin" ??? So it's not free? Could we just take the GCC package and the DLL and distribute it together with our software and install it on our costumers Windows PCs? We have to be able to generate and (cross-)compile code on our costumers PCs that is than transfered to our devices and executed. -- Steven Scholz imc Measurement & Control imc Meßsysteme GmbH Voltastr. 5 Voltastr. 5 13355 Berlin 13355 Berlin Germany Deutschland fon: +49 30 467090-0 Tel: 030 / 467090-0 fax: +49 30 4631576 fax: 030 / 4631576 ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
