[Dev-C++] How: cygwin-gcc as compiler for Dev-C++?

[A. K. <kli...@we...>]

I want to write a program which has to run under *nix and win32. It's ne=
twork related daemon which
uses socket.h and pthreads, and Dev-C++ seems to be the best IDE for gcc=
 on win32

I tried to compile the win32 commandline project template with cygwin by=
 choosing
"use cygwin instead of the mingw compiler" and put my d:\lang\cygwin\bi=
n" into
Directories/Binaries. I even removed the mingw binary-directory from the=
re
Whatever I do, Dev-C++ still uses either mingw compiler or no compiler a=
t all.

So how do I get Dev-C++ to use cygwin? Or if this is not possible, is th=
ere another
IDE which can use cygwin?
Mingw is not an option since it's too win32-centric for this project (wi=
nsock2 is just
not available on Linux)
