Should we offer Kai and Ronald a mingw-dvlpr account? Earnie ----- Forwarded message from Kai...@on... ----- Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2006 11:32:46 +0200 From: Kai Tietz <Kai...@on...> Reply-To: How to build or use Cross Compilers <min...@li...> Subject: [Mingw-crosscompile] New binutil target PE+ vista & xp64 and COFF format for cpu x86_64 To: min...@li... Hallo, I sent to binutils the patch for the new x86_64-pc-mingw64 as cross target.I was asked to post about this patch also to you. May this new target is of some interest to you and you can help me to verify this patch, because at the binutils there are not much windows users :| PS: You can find the patch in the thread "Re: PE+ and new COFF format for x86_64 target for XP64 and Vista binaries" (I tested it with cygwin and linux environment) The patch to binutils is posted here http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2006-09/msg00036.html We started to prepare the gnu toolchain to allow building 64bit windows applications. This so affects binutils, gcc, mingw and also cygwin. We have a bunch of this already running allowing to build native 64bit windows apps (mingw) so it is getting time to contribute our changes back to the mainline, so other people can use it for their projects. As of the fact the changes are covering a big range and several projects it will for sure take a considerable amount of time and needs to be coordinated. i.A.

> Should we offer Kai and Ronald a mingw-dvlpr account? If they can add IA64 support to MinGW I think it's a good idea, seeing as how often it is asked for. Unfortunately I have no IA64 machines to test their patches against, but at least they can have an open dialog that may be a little too technical for the other MinGW lists.

Probably. But I think they should first be given the opportunity to let us evaluate their capabilities, through discussion on the Developers' List; only when we are satisfied with their credentials, should we proceed to this next step.
