Hi,
Is there a easy solution to port GCC code to windows?
Can it be done in VC++ without much change in the code?
I tried DJGPP, but its missing few API's(rather functions),
like message queues etc.
Anyone have an idea?
Amish.
P.S. lots of C related questions are being put up recently.
Is it allowed here? ;-)

Write ANSI C.
Try cross-compiling with gcc.

Does VC++ do ANSI C?

Try Cygwin.

Nope.
Oh... I do. But where can we get chocolate ice cream and a fish tank?

No. Stay where you are, Citizen. The Thought Police are on their
way. Do not resist.

Murphy was an optimist. It ALWAYS goes wrong, especially if it's mission

- get gcc for windows.
- get cygwin, and compile in there

Not. ANSI C stuff is there. Unix specifics can't be there. If you
write non-portable code, it cannot be ported. If you write portable
code, it can.
