I am not sure what triggered you to educate me on Open Source project and cross-platform projects. Probably you are more experienced and are a real developer. I am not a software developer but I am an active supporter of Open Source Projects Actually I am one of the contributing testers for projects which UrJtag/libftdi are based on. I am one of the admins of libusb-win32 project and listed in the THANKS file of libusb-1.0. http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb-win32/ http://www.libusb.org/browser/libusb/THANKS http://git.libusb.org/?p=libusb-pbatard.git;a=blob;f=libusb/os/windows_usb.c;hb=HEAD > > i also find it a bit ironic that you talk about not wanting to be > forced to work with Linux while turning around and expecting other > people who could care less about building under Windows to > investigate/fix/workaround their problems. I am OS neutral. I use both Windows and Linux. I even got two trivial patches committed in the Linux kernel. I can use Linux to cross-compile UrJtag (will do that) but I'd like to try out MinGW/Cygwin as well. If others do not care about building under Windows, that is certainly fine. I will spend the time to work around the problem if I find the project useful or interesting to me. > the problem you have > appears to be a bug in your (and perhaps general mingw) Windows setup > which means its on you and/or people who are interested in working on > it to research. Fair enough. Yes I am going to do the research.
