aMule 2.2 SVN for Windows
« on: December 24, 2007, 02:32:42 PM »

Finally it works. I've only tested it on Vista Business so far without actually downloading anything, but skins do work fine. ;)

Here you go, try to break it:

Permission problem is gone at last.  ;D
Kad stays firewalled however, even though I've opened my ports in the windows firewall (on Linux it goes ok in seconds).
Did you compile it with MSVC or Mingw ? If MSVC - why the ming-dll ?

I cross-compiled on Linux using mingw32 after making it compile again. The bunch of changes seems to have eliminated the problem with preferences at last...geez, that was killing me for such a long time...

Is there a MINGW32 package for Linux, or how do you set up a cross compiler for Windows on Linux ?

I use Archlinux and I have mingw32-packages ready to use in the repos and I think Debian has some as well.

Actually I just checked and Ubuntu has some packages, too. IIRC you were using Ubuntu, don't you?

If you need some further help with compiling, please feel free to ask me.

In general? Install mingw32 including the corresponding binutils, gcc, runtime and w32api packages. Then call i486-mingw32-gcc (might be i686-mingw32-gcc, too) instead of your local gcc when compiling and application.

If the application uses a configure script, pass the option --host=i486-mingw32 (or i686-mingw32 respectively) to the configure script and it should set you up for cross compiling.

If you're talking about aMule: install the mingw packages for libiconv, gettext and zlib as well, compile wxmsw from source (add the --host option to the configure script) and compile aMule adding the host option...stop, you'll have to take care of crypto++ as well, lazy me wanted to test this, but didn't do it. But I guess you have to compile from source and specify the crypto-prefix.
