I have a 64-bit Cygwin environment. I'm trying to compile a 32-bit (target) Windows program using i686-pc-mingw32-g++ # i686-pc-mingw32-g++ -g -Wall -Iinclude -I../../library/include -c -o NPOTAdlg.o NPOTAdlg.cpp # windres -Iinclude res/NPOTAdlg.rc -O coff -o res/NPOTAdlg.res # i686-pc-mingw32-g++ -s -mwindows -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ -lwininet NPOTA.o NPOTAdlg.o res/NPOTAdlg.res ../../library/library.a /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/lib/libwininet.a -o NPOTA But I get this error on the link (last) step: res/NPOTAdlg.res: file not recognized: File format not recognized This program is a clone of another program I wrote a couple of years ago (I wanted to re-use the Windows framework I had developed). However, at that time, I was using 32-bit Cygwin, not 64-bit Cygwin. Is there a work-around for this, other than re-creating a 32-bit Cygwin environment?
Just a guess: your 64-bit windres is generating a 64-bit .res file that the 32-bit g++ can't grok. Look at 'windres -h'. There's a "-F" == "--target" flag that can specify a target type. I would try adding "-F pe-i386" after the "-O coff" on your command. If windres doesn't accept both -O and -F, try leaving off the "-O coff" and just specify the -F flag and value. Good luck.
