Yeah you can. I've cross compiled Windows PEs from Linux all the time.

However you've missed my point. You're moaning about the state of free development tools for Windows and I'm saying that Windows / Microsoft isn't there to provide you with something for nothing. I'm saying that if you want a free environment, then you really need to go FOSS. However if you want to use proprietary software -such as Windows and VS- then you have to accept that it's going to cost you.

It's like people who moan about the cost of development on iOS - if you don't like it, then develop for Android instead; it's free to develop on, there's more handsets in circulation and it's free to develop on.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a FOSS fanboy. I just can't stand people who choose to use proprietary tools then moan about having to pay for them / how crippled the free tools are.

You have that backwards, that's cross compiling for Linux, not Windows. Plus Cygwin is total garbage.

Oh, I'm not complaining: they cut it out of all versions, and I can get it back by downloading a few files.

I'm just a tiny bit annoyed.

Right now I'm focused on improving in Java and D. Also C but D stands "between" D and Java since it is both a system and object-oriented programming language, also takes most of the C-syntax.

I'll also have to learn C++ very soon for a school project (Arduino). biggrin.gif

Regarding Windows/Linux compatibility, don't forget about C# and Mono.

Minw != mingw.

You originally stated mingw and cygwin, which are both POSIX environments for Windows - NOT Windows tools for Linux. Hence why I said you had things backwards rolleyes.gif

Well yeah, but you still need a cross-compiler to begin with.

Besides, it's not really best practice to be using C# on anything but Windows anyway. Given that C# is proprietary and MONO isn't a complete implementation of .NET.
