    I am following the instructions here: http://gnutoolchains.com/building as I need to build a tool-chain for compiling software for Linux x86_64.

    1. I would rather cross-compile on Windows for Linux. Can I get some guidance on how to set-up a compatible tool-chain for compiling for Linux x86_64.

    2. Is VisualGDB able to work with Clang instead of GCC? If so can I get some guidance on how to compile a compatible tool-chain with Clang?

    The general outline of building a cross-toolchain is described in http://gnutoolchains.com/building.

    However in most of the cases you will face multiple build errors, as the GNU tools are quite fragile and often incompatible and require ad hoc fixing. We do offer a custom toolchain building service. I.e. if you provide us with a snapshot of your Linux system, we would build an equivalent Windows cross-toolchain for you. Please contact our sales to get a quote for that.

    You can alternatively use VisualGDB with clang. As clang command-line options are compatible with gcc, simply replace the gcc executables with clang executables in debug.mak and release.mak
