Waf Crosscompile

Windows

Grab the following 7zip and extract it somewhere (lets call it $MINGW_ROOT)

http://people.xmms2.org/~puzzles/win32/MSys.7z

And then get mingw:

aptitude install mingw

Put the following in a win32.sh:

export MINGW_ROOT=/path/to/Msys.7z-you-extracted export PKG_CONFIG_PREFIX=$MINGW_ROOT export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=$MINGW_ROOT/lib/pkgconfig export AR=i586-mingw32msvc-ar export RANLIB=i586-mingw32msvc-ranlib export CC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc export CPP=i586-mingw32msvc-g++ export CXX=i586-mingw32msvc-g++ export LINK_CC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc export LINK_CXX=i586-mingw32msvc-g++ export WINRC=i586-mingw32msvc-windres # Options may vary on what you want to compile, tweak at your discression ./waf configure --conf-prefix=/usr/i586-mingw32msvc,../mingw-root \   --without-optionals=xmmsclient++,dns_sd,perl,launcher,medialib-updater,xmmsclient++-glib,et,avahi \   --with-target-platform=win32 \   --without-plugins=ao,alsa,oss,musepack,mac,avformat,daap,avcodec

Remember to make the shellscript executable:

chmod +x win32.sh

Now you're ready to rumble:

./win32.sh ./waf build -p -j2

Badabing, you've crosscompiled XMMS2 for Windows!
