Hi, is there any plans to port valgrind to the mingw/msys environment ? Cheers, Thomas -- |

See: http://www.valgrind.org/info/platforms.html Which says: In particular Windows is not under consideration here because porting to it would require so many changes it would almost be a separate project. Also, non-open-source OSes are difficult to deal with; being able to see the OS and associated (libc) source code makes things much easier. And mingw is essentially just a very thin wrapper around the MS libc DLL. Perhaps the FAQ should have an entry for "Are you planning to port to Windows?" refering the the reader to platforms.html?
