Hello list,
I recently setup a cross compiler from linux->mingw32. Using --host,
--build and --target I am able to reproduce software successfully. But
with a little bit of confusion about the above parameters.
Reading `info Autoconf' tells me:
--host : the system the package will run (here: mingw32)
--build : the system the package is build (here: linux)
--target : the system the package is meant to produce code for (here:
mingw32)
Thus libtool should set the program compiling the `impgen' program when
creating the import library to a `--build' gcc and should not default to
the `--host' gcc which it in fact does. This fails of course, because
this gcc produces code for mingw32 here and cannot be executed!
I fixed this behaviour setting HOST_CC=gcc which then overrides the
setting inside libtool. I got confused because I had to set HOST_CC and
not BUILD_CC. Am I misunderstanding something? Any help or just a
clarification is very appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
