[vlc] Re: Cross Compile VLC for mips32

[Danny Brown]

I have just finally compiled for cross win ce after much trouble and
misunderstanding on my part. A couple of suggestions that kind of messed me
up for quite some time. 1st make sure that you have libtool installed. It is
actually what does the crossing of the libs I beleive. If you don't you wont
necessarily fail to build but some things won't actually work. Second, make
sure that all libs you make are actually made using the cross compilers
make, not the standard make. I was building according to the instructions
for win ce all of the project, but had to download a libraries source and
build it as well. The CE instructions for the project used the make from the
cross compiler like PATH=/usr/cross-compiler/...
and them PATH make. When I built the library I just typed make from its
source tree. Therefor, I was building the project and the libs with
different make versions and they were not compatible at the binary level.
Anyway, just my thoughts.
