Cross compiling windows applications from linux with mingw32 [message #22977]

Hi, I'm trying compile a small console application using sockets.
I've defined a new build method saying that should use mingw32 cross-compiler in linux. I got compile source files but linker fails. Linker error is:

/home/marcelo/upp.out/Web/MINGW32.Gcc.Shared.Win32/Web.a: could not read symbols: Archive has no index; run ranlib to add one

Any help?

I've succefully compiled my program cross-compiling on Linux with mingw32.

The problem was TheIDE try to link with pthread and ld libraries, which doesn't exist in the mingw32 environment.
When I link it by hand (without -lpthread -lld) it works.

I'm using Gcc builder method and choose i586-mingw32msvc-g++ as compiler. Of course I set the corresponding paths (binaries, include and libs).

�Can I modify list of libraries to link in a build method?

Thanks
