Using Linux libraries with cross-compiler

[thegilb]

We depend on several open-source libraries, as well as at least one closed-source third-party library.

When using the cross-compiler tool-chain (Windows to Linux), what’s the recommended process for working with these libraries?

Perhaps there is some simple solution such as SCP the headers, archives and shared objects to the Windows machine for compilation? Can WinGDB fetch the files it needs (*.h / *.a / *.so) automatically from the Linux target?

Hi,

I presume, you mean VisualGDB, not WinGDB. Yes, simply click “resynchronize toolchain” on the Build Settings page of VisualGDB Project Properties and VisualGDB will automatically fetch those files for you.
