Cross Platform Development (MinGW)

Re: Cross Platform Development
Hi,
A little bit of confusion. As the earlier post, I have successfully compiled a project(TWAIN Sample for Windows and Linux) in Windows 10, Qt 5 environment using VC 17 Compiler and minGW 7 and it's working on windows.
Now the question is when copying this MinGW code on ubuntu 16.4 using GCC main.o it gives the error.
to resolve the issue I guess to install MinGW and related components but still not working ... please help to build a cross-platform application. -
Hi and welcome to the forums
" main.o it gives the error."
What error? You have to provide code and exact error as else we cannot help.
- to resolve the issue I guess to install MinGW and related components but still not working
What ? On linux, there is GCC. Mingw Is gcc ported to windows !
So not sure what you installed. -

MinGW is GCC port for Windows and usually generates binaries for Windows. Cross compiling from Windows to Linux is possible, but it is way easier to simply build on Linux.
