Thanks - I was wondering that - a particular GUI application works compiling to native on linux (which uses a GTK peer, I think) so I am wondering if I could just dump win32 GTK somewhere under mingw and build gcj with awt-enabled to make it work. >> Lastly, has anybody been able to cross-build gcc 4.2.x at all?

I didn't realised that was the approach you took... anyway, I found my problem now (separate post), and you probably want to know that your win32 binaries actually works under wine - although rather slowly, but I bet it is a wine fault. |
