Following two old posts ( Cross-compiling windows applications under linux with wine and DevC++ and Compiling win32 binaries on linux ) here another post on cross-compiling windows applications on linux. DevC++ has apparently been droped by its creators, as it has been years since its last release. After that I am willing to migrate some projetcs to Codeblocks . To not loose to much productivity, I am using a windows vitual machine (Virtual Box) to compile my windows projects, with DevC++, Codeblocks and Borland C++ Builder. But what I want most is to do everything from my emacs window. Until I can do it so, I am using Codeblocks which is a multiplatform IDE, running on Windows, Linux and Mac. Codeblocks has a target option to its projects. One can set diferent target platforms for the same project.
