Re: Compiling apps to Mingw32 with cygwin


Dear Earnie,

I do not get it with the --build switch. Am I not building on i686-pc-cygwin? 
Is it i368-pc-mingw because I use the mingw-headers? But I use the 
cygwin-compiler.

Sorry, but I am confused a bit ...

Should'nt these scripts be included in the standard cygwin-gcc- (and 
binutils-) distribution? It would be very easy to include them, and compiling 
for the mingw32 target would also be a lot easier.
