In a half hour last night, I was able to cross compile python for windows, on linux, using mingw32. Just get source to tag v2.7.1 python using hg, then apply David's cmake patch. Build a simple CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE for your linux mingw toolset, and it built just fine. CMake, Linux, Mingw, cross-compiling, and money are my answer to any problems in this topic. Since they don't exist in sufficient quantity, I am now dropping out of this topic. The talk about using microsoft tools getting pulled back into the project are too painful to even participate in. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
