I'm in the process of going from gcc3 to gcc4. For one project I need to build both cygwin and win32 executables so "-mno-cygwin" to "mingw32-gcc" was an initial hurdle. However that is now sorted out, but one thing puzzles me. If the mingw32 is a cygwin cross-compiler why does it not accept paths in the host format (meaning cygwin, posix)? To me this seems very natural. Maybe I'm biased, but I see no other tools do that, expecting the command line to have the format of the *target*. mingw32-gcc also produces .d files in its native format by the way. -- View this message in context: http://cygwin.1069669.n5.nabble.com/mingw32-gcc-and-posix-paths-tp92376.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
