[Vm-dev] [OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm] How to build on Win32 using WSL/Ubuntu | Missing headers (#510)

[Marcel Taeumel]

Hi Christoph.

WSL = Windows Subsystem for Linux?

Can you even build Windows binaries from within WSL? I don't know.

Using Cygwin, you can build Windows binaries that link against Cygwin1.dll. Using MinGW (not necessarily out of Cygwin) you can build Windows binaries that directly link to Windows libraries. MinGW provides all the header files such as windows.h.

But you can also use the MSVC compiler. :-) I think. There are people doing that.

Best,
Marcel
