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.

- 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.
