Kind of related to this problem, kind of not... Why don't we move to GCC being the default compiler for Windows? I was thinking of trying this sometime soon (I have an exam in a weeks time, after that I have lots of time on my hands). Preferably native GCC, not running in cygwin or anything. This way its also free (beer and speech) to start developing Pingu's on Windows, as I can't particularly afford VC++7.
That would be really great! But is it really possible? On the GCC homepage they said that GCC is included in Cygwin and other versions (of GCC) can be built under cygwin. Does anybody know if cygwin-GCC builds native Win32 binaries or only ones that can be executed by cygwin? If it builds Win32-binaries we could build GCC under cygwin an then use it without cygwin.
Greetings Björn
