Kdevelop and mingw (crosscompiling)

dopar! · 2008-06-10 07:31:49

Hi ! I really dont't know if this post has to be here, but anyways ! (it has to do with programming so...:P)
My big issue is : i have to crosscompile a c++ program to win32 but i can't even can set the compiler properly !
I've tryed mingw so far and i can't get to it work ! It's been a whole day of research and i still can't !
The ide i'm using right now is Kdevelop running on arch64. One funny thing that i noticed right after downloading mingw from the aur
was that the mingw command was something like "i486-mingw-gcc" ! Is this really ok or is there something wrong on the aur repo!
Anyways i'll stick the logs here !

There seems to be something wrong with the mingw installation since kde cannot correctly execute the i586-mingw32 but i'm still kind of noob !
I'll dig the config files deeper tomorrow, but i'll be nice to hear some major advices !
I hope someone can help me out ! I'll appreciate it !:)
PS : I've been using arch(linux in fact) for almost 1 month and i have to admit it's awesome , for someone who is willing to learn how this 1010101 thingis called computer works it's just awesome !You learn something new everytime you switch on the computer! Keep it up with the good work!
