General Discussion / Re: Brainstorm: What is Next with OS/2 ?
« on: Today at 02:36:46 am »Have a possibly dumb question, not being a programmer: is it possible to produce OS/2 executables with GCC inside of Linux? If so, would make compiling large apps easier, no?
In theory, it is quite possible. In practice, it would mean recompiling most of our tool chain on Linux as Linux binaries as a start, using our headers and libs and who knows what else. How much porting would be required in the recompilation is unknown, we'd also be porting to 64bit. There may be a chicken and egg problem too, needing cross compiled tools to cross compile.
