[Insight-users] cross compiling ITK with cmake 2.6 and mingw32 on linux kubuntu

[Margarete Herbst]

hello guys,
in order to cross compile my program on linux kubuntu gutsy gibbon for
windows I browsed kitware's cmake site and found some information
(http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CmakeMingw) on this topic - ok, I could
successfully compile this hello world c-app into hello.exe.
my app currently uses the libs ITK, VTK and kwWidgets and I can compile it
on kubuntu for kubuntu without problems. for cross compiling it for windows
I need first to cross compile the libs themselves. so I thought to start
with ITK ... but unfortunately, even here, I faced the first problems:
I installed the debian packages mingw32, mingw32-binutils and
mingw32-runtime and gcc-multilib on my kubuntu. I also installed cmake 2.6.
I CVS-checked-out the hottest ITK-version from itk.org, then I wrote a
toolchain-file (similar to the one presented at
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CmakeMingw) and then ran cmake (with
toolchain-option). cmake successfully configured.
but the subsequent make later interrupted:
...

can someone beyond you help me, please? is there someone who has experience
with mingw32 and cmake cross compilation for windows on linux systems? are
there eventually some documents/tutorials available explaining how to
configure ITK for mingw-cross-compilation?
