[Qemu-devel] qemu on windows.

[Sami Haahtinen]

I just had fun with colinux and qemu, which proved that qemu can run on 
windows ;)

Well not really, colinux is basicly uml ported to windows, so qemu is 
actually running on uml linux. thing work, although there is no network 
access as colinux doesn't appear to have support for tun* devices.. i 
think this could be solved by recompiling but that is an other matter.

Has anyone tried compiling qemu to windows (with cygwin) or is it just 
too bound to linux/unix world.

Regards, Sami

I really should start re-re-reading my posts, that really doesn't make 
that much sense..

I think that was supposed to say 'it works', or something alike.

Working on it... (using Mingw not Cygwin)

Hard part so far is using ELF format instead of PE/COFF related to
dyngen.c, op.c (QEMU generates basic code primitives portably using GCC,
and then reads those primitive chunks of code from ELF object file. But
with Mingw the object file will be COFF format, so it has to process a
whole different format object file)

Got that backwards... for the win32 port need to use PE/COFF instead of
ELF...
