When I tried to port an app from Linux to Windows, I hit a big problem with g_io_channel handling on a serial port, and ended up having to write (or dig up from a previous Borland project) windows-specific code. I don't think cygwin would fix that, though. On the other hand, might cygwin produce code that needs lots of cygwin libraries, whereas MinGW produces an application that only needs the GTK windows port? _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
