Concise Instructions for Doing a gcc Cross-Compile in CYGWIN for FreeBSD

Concise Instructions for Doing a gcc Cross-Compile in CYGWIN for FreeBSD

[Miller, Bruce SAXONHQ]

I'm looking for clear/concise Instructions for doing a gcc cross-compile in
CYGWIN for FreeBSD.
Thanks in advance.

If you search the cygwin-apps mailing list archives, this has been
discussed recently on how to do it for linux.  BSD should be no different.
 Also, this sort of question is off-topic for this list, and thus I have
redirected it to the appropriate list which discusses developing and
building crosscompiler environments.

Cheers,
Nicholas

As noticed, this has been discused on cygwin-apps.  As an addendum,
I'm working to provide cross-compile setup as mknetrel scripts, but
they've not been offered to be included in mknetrel yet.  You can find
them as a WIP at:

   http://lilypond.org/~jan/cygwin/mknetrel

Get mknetrel here:

   cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/cygwin-apps co mknetrel

Greetings,
Jan.

If you want an alternative to creating yet another tool, you might find
the following script kinda useful. A similar principle applies to the
use of rpm cross-compile toolkits.

===
#! /bin/bash
# convert a deb file to a cygwin setup.exe tarball

export PKG=`echo $1 | sed -e 's/_.*//'`
echo package $PKG
export VER=`echo $1 | sed -e 's/[^_]*_//' -e 's/_.*//'`
echo version $VER
export REL=1
echo cygwin release 1
export FULLPKG=${PKG}-${VER}-${REL}
export bin_pkg_name=${FULLPKG}.tar.bz2
export bin_pkg=`pwd`/${bin_pkg_name}


dpkg-deb -x $1 $PKG-$VER-temp && \
  cd $PKG-$VER-temp && \
  tar cvjf ${bin_pkg} * &&
  echo ${bin_pkg} created.
