Wine (winehq.com) is free (in both senses) software that provides a Windows work-alike that appears (from news stories, I have no personal experience yet) to be fairly mature.
Thus, I was wondering whether anybody here had tried MinGW/MSYS/Wine as a platform for building software with CMake? Note, I am not discussing a MinGW cross-compile possibility. Instead, I am discussing running MinGW/MSYS and CMake directly under Wine. Currently my only platform is Linux, and I have no practical experience with the Windows platform (either Wine or proprietary versions) at this stage. Nevertheless, if the MinGW/MSYS/Wine platform choice is known to work with CMake, that would motivate me to learn enough about using Windows so that I could use MinGW/MSYS/Wine on CMake myself.
