Not the right forum, if you're thinking of adding non-portable stuff, or you depend on stuff not supported by VC. > Assume I have only the C source codes, which do not use any system calls > at all.

I'll mention that VC doesn't support std=c99; some of the features are available in C++, of course. Nor does VC support auto-vectorization; surely you knew that. Options aren't entirely consistent between x86 and x64. > > I have an application that I compiled and executed with cygwin and now I > want to move that to VC++. I open a cmd window which is set up in accordance with vcvarsxx.bat, and then run my \cygwin\cygwin .bat script, so as to have bash and make available. I make a separate version of my Makefile with VC9 options. You may call it cheating, but attempts to use ancient versions of NM are to be avoided; gnu make is viable with VC in both cygwin and mingw versions. GUI issues are well outside the scope of this list.
