I think that getting OpenJDK to build with just with MinGW (or just the Cygwin gcc with -mno-cygwin, for the matter) would be quite nice to have, if you'd get it to work. What Kelly's saying is that there is likely a lot more to that then just changing the CC variable. But of course, don't let that discourage you - I am not aware of anyone actually attempting the build with MinGW, so your experience (if you post it to this list) would be valuable at least in knowing where the obstacles would be. cheers, dalibor topic -- ******************************************************************* Dalibor Topic Tel: (+49 40) 23 646 738 Java F/OSS Ambassador AIM: robiladonaim Sun Microsystems GmbH Mobile: (+49 177) 2664 192 Nagelsweg 55 http://openjdk.java.net D-20097 Hamburg mailto:[email protected] Sitz der Gesellschaft: Sonnenallee 1, D-85551 Kirchheim-Heimstetten Amtsgericht München: HRB 161028 Geschäftsführer: Jürgen Kunz
