unable to compile .exe files under KDevelop
 

I've tried to compile a win32 console program and it won't go. It simply says it can't compile the executable. I can, however, compile linux console and gui programs fine. Is there a patch I need or anything like that?

I'm looking to boot windows for good, and this is the last reservation I have (besides games :). Any help with this would be awesome.

AFAIK, there's no way to compile windows executables in linux short of vmware (or some other virtualizer). The c/c++ compiler for linux compiles programs that will run under linux.

So the only ways I can see you compiling win32 programs:

1. Boot into windows.
2. Run vmware and use that to compile windows programs.

Actually you can build win32 programs on a linux platform..

All you need is a cross compiler, which can be build using MinGW sources.
