Issues cross compiling with mingw

[Dariqq]

Hello,

I tried to cross compile with mingw from linux -> windows

An example toolchain file is at https://www.mingw-w64.org/build-systems/cmake/

Issues:

• src/modules/separator/separator.c:30:31: error: implicit declaration of function ‘mbrtoc32’

__SIZEOF_WCHAR_T seems to be 2 in both i686-w64-mingw32and x86_64-w64-mingw32 toolchains.

I think mbrtoc32 is only available in mingw when using ucrt runtime (and not msvcrt)

• Casing in windows headers.

The headers in mingw are called windows.h, winuser.h, etc.. I think on windows this does not matter because it is case insensitive.

Hello. Fastfetch targets C11. We not only use the syntax, but also usr the standard library. As msvcrt does not support C11, we dont support building fastfetch with msvcrt.

Why do you want to cross build fadtfetch?

Thanks for the info.

With an ucrt mingw the only issue is the casing in the headers.

Cross compiling is easier than trying to set up windows for development.
