Roger Meier commented on THRIFT-874:
------------------------------------

Great!

Work's fine for Windows XP, built with mingw on Debian Lenny!

it probably makes sense to strip the binary within the 
_contrib/mingw-cross-compile.sh_ script by doing a
{code}
i586-mingw32msvc-strip compiler/cpp/thrift.exe
{code}
bevore make it available as download.



> Script and document Windows build process

> 1. Document how to build the Thrift code from source on a stock MinGW+MSYS
