What's the way to compile minisip for windows xp ?

[Feng Yi]

Hi, dear minisip developers:
I'm a fresh user of minisip who is benefiting from your nice work.
I just wanna to compile minisip for windows.
But after 2 days' work, I lose my self in the following problem :(

   I tried cross-compiling for 2 days on Red Hat Linux. I compile the
openssl successfully, But finally I run into a problem in compiling minisip
like this:

      checking for i586-mingw32msvc-g++... i586-mingw32msvc-g++
      checking for C++ compiler default output file name... configure:
error: C++ compiler cannot create executables

   I can not figure out what's wrong. I ever heard someone solved the
problem in Debian box by "apt-get build-dep lftp" (lftp can be any
software). So I guess there must be some problems with my build enviroment.
But I can not figure it out in my RPM based Linux box.

   Here is what I prepared for cross-compiling:
    * install mingw32-3.4.2.20040916.1-3.i386.rpm to get
i586-mingw32msvc-gcc/g++/cc...
    * install mingw-binutils-2.13.90.20030111.1-2.i386.rpm to get
ld/as/ar...
    * download windows api and mingw runtime tar.gz package for using in
configure ( -I/...../include   -L/...../lib/)
    * change the as, ld, ar ... in /usr/bin to the mingw ones
(/usr/mingw/bin/as, ld, ar ...)

  Now I'm not sure whether I can continue using cross-compiling in Red Hat.
Shall I switch to debian or MinGW on Windows ?
  I really want to know the way to compile for windows. Can you  help me?

Thanks.
