Hi all, Based on Tor's, Fridrich's, and others great work, I was able to get the MinGW cross-compilation to state that it not only builds, but even runs! :-) The good thing about all this is that with this, you do not need a Windows machine at all to be able to produce LibreOffice Windows executable. Even debugging can be done on Linux, using wine.
The full description is here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/README.cross#n63 Few highlights: - use the pre-build MinGW packages from OBS [http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Build_Service], it will save you lots of pain - don't expect a nice installer, the result of build is just a tarball containing the executable and libraries - the resulting build works under wine - you can use winedbg to debug that You might have noticed that there is a tinderbox that builds the MinGW builds regularly, and I am fixing the breakages when they are not fixed by the committer for a long time ;-), so the code should not bitrot that easily. I have also enabled uploading of the build results to http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org , the first ones should appear there shortly. Most probably they won't run out of the box, because they will be missing the .dlls that come from the OBS MinGW project - but I'll adapt scp2 to include them. All in all - enjoy! :-) Would be great to see more people hacking on this; it is an exciting new world, and lots of things can (and should) be improved - see the TODO in the README.cross.
