[Qemu-devel] Cross compile install (win32 binaries/mingw)

[Qemu-devel] Cross compile install (win32 binaries/mingw)

[Damien Mascord]

Hi guys,

I have succesfully built qemu (current CVS) for win32 using a mingw
cross compile environment, though there were 2 caveats:

1) HAVE_GCC3_OPTIONS=yes was not set correctly (when using gcc 3.4.2 mingw)

2) dyngen.exe is not executable on linux (obviously), so I had to use
wine to build it.  (DYNGEN=/usr/bin/wine ../dyngen$(EXESUF))

Once the binaries are built, Windows 2003 SBS installs fine.

Is there any solution to either #1 or #2 ?

Cheers,

Damien

That's an utter lie :)  I was using the wrong binaries to launch qemu.
[daily build 20050303 is fine, my build segfaults].

Any idea on how to succesfully build a cross compile install of qemu ?

Cheers,

Damien

I am using gcc 3.3.1 (mingw special 20030804-1) for the windows build,
using ./configure --enable-mingw32 should work without trouble.
When cross compiling for windows, dyngen.exe is build with HOST_CC, it's
a linux exe.

Here is how my toolchain is build, if it help:

Hi Ronald,

Thanks for your help!  Now that dyngen is compiled with the correct
toolchain (ie, HOST_CC), things seem to be cleaner.

I still need to specify HAVE_GCC3_OPTIONS=yes in config-host.mak though...

Would you happen to know how to get it to build with the directx 9 SDK ?

What is your tools prefix? configure assume it's i386-mingw32- for
mingw32 build, maybe it is where your problem is, you can pass
--cross-prefix= to configure with the good prefix.
The test for gcc3 is done around line 247.

No, I use a directx 7.0 port from
http://jrfonseca.dyndns.org/projects/gnu-win32/software/ported/msvc/directx-7.0-mingw32.tar.bz2
