Now for the cross-compiler stuff.
This is bleeding edge stuff for now so make sure you have the latest tarball. I think the next pre-release will include all this out of the box but if not, at the very least this procedure will work.
Make sure you have a good installation of the SDK (Build & Install SDK in Debian / Ubuntu + 64bit) but use the latest (post with download link) tarball.
Just the commands:
Code: Select all sudo apt-get install mingw32
sudo apt-get wine
wine cmd
exit
wget http://ecere.com/downloads/winbin.zip
unzip -x winbin.zip
mv bin/ecere*.dll /home/user/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/
1. You need to install the mingw32 compiler.
2. If you want to run the programs you compile with this able compiler, you might want to install wine and go through a quick configuration by running cmd. (Exit command prompt afterwards.)
Code: Select all sudo apt-get install wine
wine cmd
exit
Code: Select all wget http://ecere.com/downloads/winbin.zip
unzip -x winbin.zip
mv bin/ecere*.dll /home/user/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/
- a. Applications -> Programming -> Ecere IDE
b. File -> Global Settings
c. Compilers
d. Duplicate the default compiler
e. Name it mingw32
e. In Toolchain
- e.1. replace cpp by i586-mingw32msvc-cpp
e.2. replace gcc by i586-mingw32msvc-gcc
f. In Libraries, Add the following directories (Remember to change /home/user to match your username.) (The order is important here.)
Code: Select all /usr/i586-mingw32msvc/lib
/home/user/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32
5. Let's try this new compiler.
- a. Open a sample. (Project -> Open / CTRL+SHIFT+O)
b. Select the mingw32 compiler. (Project -> Active Compiler)
c. Build the sample! (Project -> Build / F7)
d. Test this new windows executable.
Code: Select all wine obj/helloWorld.debug.mingw32.win32/HelloWorld.exe
wine obj/helloForm.debug.mingw32.win32/HelloForm.exe
That's it for now!

PS: This has been tested in Debian 5.0 and Ubuntu 9.10 / 10.04 (both 32 and 64 bit).
(with 64 bit linux, produced windows binaries are 32 bit)
PS: Feedback for all platforms is welcome. |
