I just tried an experiment and it worked. === cmakelists.txt === project(hello) add_executable(hello hello.c) target_link_libraries(hello gdi32) === Where hello.c was a Win32 "hello world" example grabbed off the internet. Then use winegcc and wineg++ as your compiler (that is: no cross-compiling setup in CMake).
