- Subject: How to compile without linking cygwin library?
A discussion about different compilers currently takes place on polish
c/c++ newsgroup. One person mentioned that code compiled with MinGW gcc
don't have to be published under GPL license, but Cygwin gcc automatically
links cygwin library so the binary file can be distributed only under GPL.
Is it possible to make gcc work in the mode like in MinGW, where cygwin
library isn't present? Will it build a binary that can run on every MS
Windows machine?
