Anyone ever figure out how to target win32 from a linux host via mingw?
I found a few comments in the archives, but it seems I missed allot or
something. Better yet, how about targeting win64?

Either win32 and win64 compile and works (tested win32). Just use
--host options during configure.

Awesome! I'm still looking for that magic touch though. Autoconf is always a nebulous area of pain for me...


$CC=/opt/crosscompilers/win32/bin/i686-mingw32-gcc ./configure --host win32
...
checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... Invalid configuration `win32': machine `win32' not recognized
configure: error: /bin/bash ./config.sub win32 failed


$CC=/opt/crosscompilers/win32/bin/i686-mingw32-gcc ./configure --host i686-mingw32
configure: WARNING: If you wanted to set the --build type, don't use --host.

$CC=/opt/crosscompilers/win32/bin/i686-mingw32-gcc ./configure --build i686-mingw32
...

Win64 is looking much smoother however...

$make clean
$CC=/opt/crosscompilers/win64/bin/x86_64-pc-mingw32-gcc ./configure --host=x86_64-pc-mingw32 --prefix=/opt/crosscompilers/win64/x86_64-pc-mingw32/ --disable-server --enable-msdblib --includedir=/opt/crosscompilers/win64/x86_64-pc-mingw32/include/freetds
$make
...
no -i ../../win32/setup.rc --input-format=rc -o ../../win32/setup.res -O coff
/bin/bash: no: command not found

Any insights? I've been looking for some program called 'no', but that's a hard word to search for :)
