I can't say. But even if it were, I'd guess most here would rather work under Unix-like OS. > I know you were talking about testing etc., but I was thinking that way you > could have a window'ish environment to do some of the building. > > You wouldn't have to do a linux cross compile which might introduce some > other issues or mask some Win32 host build problem. Nothing wrong with cross compiling, really. Get full power of any necessary GNU utilities, editors, etc. in their "native environment." The only trouble is getting mingw, library dependencies, etc. set up in the first place, and having a standard build image or Live CD is one possible solution to that problem. -- John. _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
