Re: Linking against libbfd under Windows/CygWin/MingW

  Perhaps you're best off compiling libbfd with --disable-shared and just
statically linking it into the final app?

That would be fine - IF I could get the damn compiler to build. All the versions I've found have had just C, not C++ (which I need internal to my program) and I cannot get any version of GCC to build successfully.


  We do it all the time on cygwin, and we even use dlopen/dlsym to load dll's
as if they were standard dsos.  There should not be any serious difficulties.


What magic do I need to avoid getting the "ctype_base.h:56: error: '_N' was not declared in this scope" errors - I've specified --target=i386-mingw32 --host=i686-pc-gnu-linux, but when libstdc++ is configured, it is configured with --host=i386-mingw32 and so picks up a header that is wrong wrong wrong and won't build.
