About Free Pascal and MinGW (or cygwin)
« on: June 04, 2013, 05:26:35 am »
Hi there!

I learned that the android-ndk can produce/compile native library 
write in "C" "binding" against MinGW (or cygwin) stuff on Windows environment...

Anyone know about the possibility of Free Pascal "binding" against MinGW(or cygwin) stuff on Windows to produce
Linux library?

I found this:

ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/contrib/cross/mingw/

Is it about this subject?

Thanks in advance ..

One can generate linux binaries on Windows. This is what crosscompiling does.

Generally on windows, one uses crossassemblers, archivers and linkers from mingw sources.  The rest is not really necessary. (in rare cases also windres).

Just search for crosscompiling topics on this forum.
