Windows build of libelf (or more)?

[Stephan Tobies via Elfutils-devel]

To refresh an existing library based on the old libelf code (mr511), I am 
looking for a way to compile (or cross-compile) the libelf of the elfutils for 
Windows. If have been searching the mailing list archive but have not found any 
pointers in that direction.

Is anybody aware of a way to compile libelf into a standalone Windows DLL?

Any pointers would be appreciated!

Thanks and best regards

Stephan Tobies

Thanks for your pointers. We are going to explore the fitness of these 
libraries for our purposes and maybe will send some pull requests through the 
channels you have suggested.

Best regards
