wiffporkins Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 My goal is to build Mumble and Murmur for a client and server which are both running Windows XP. Is it possible to build an XP executable on a Linux machine, or do I need to build these executables from a native XP environment? Thanks in advance.

Administrators hacst Posted December 8, 2010 Administrators Share Posted December 8, 2010 Unless you want to take a trip into a world of pain I'd recommend you to compile clients for the windows platform on windows :lol: I'm not even sure it's even feasible at all with our dependencies on DirectX and various other specific APIs.

wiffporkins Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 That's sorta what I figured. Just wanted a definite answer before I begin tackling all the dependencies for the Windows build. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realnc Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 It should be possible with this: http://www.nongnu.org/mingw-cross-envIt might be even better than building on Windows, since with mingw-cross-env you'll be using the latest GCC and also be building fully statically, resulting in no DLL dependencies.

Moderators pcgod Posted December 11, 2010 Moderators Share Posted December 11, 2010 I'm not sure if mingw includes headers for all Win 7 features. The last time I checked it didn't and you won't be able to compile without that (at least not without modifing some files). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
