Can someone test out a cross-compile I did of "Bug Squish?"
It’s available as a ZIP file (containing everything the normal source
version has, plus a Win32 cross-compiled .EXE and copies of cross-compiled
SDL libs (as DLLs)).
ftp://ftp.sonic.net/pub/users/nbs/unix/x/bugsquish/bugsquish-0.0.3.zip
I don’t have a Win32 system to test on, and I want to make sure it actually
RUNS before I tell the general public to go donwload it. 
Thanks!

hello william, i look forward to bugsquish, but in the meantime
i get this error…
“Windows cannot run thie program because it is an invalid format.”
nonetheless, the file must be somewhat correct, because i can
run my dependency programs on it and see what dll calls it makes
sorry. (this is win98 with directx7a installed)
I get the same error on WindowsNT 4.0.
It gives error 0xc0000005 if this helps.__________________________________

On the minus side, I have to report I had baiscally the same problem running
the executable.
I am using Windows 2000, DirectX 8. A quick look at the header on the
executable
makes it look like valid PE format, but Windows doesn’t like it much. Looks
like
either the cross compiler is slightly busted or something else happened
(accidental linefeed
conversion UNIX->Win on a binary? Dunno…)On the plus side, it compiles fine in Visual C++ (after defining a DATA_PREFIX) and the resulting binary runs fine. So all is not lost.

Sounds like someone tried to use the “strip” command on the EXE 
strip can produce broken binaries for win32.

ld -s can produce the same effect.
See ya,
-Sam Lantinga, Lead Programmer, Loki Entertainment Software
ld -s can produce the same effect.
Ok… would any of the mingw32 “sdl-config” outputs cause an “ld -s”?
See anything obvious I’m doing wrong in the Makefile/etc?
See the ftp://ftp.sonic.net/pub/users/nbs/unix/x/bugsquish/bugsquish-0.0.3.zip
Thanks!

Your mixer dll seems to be the culprit. I replaced
it with another one and your game ran fine.
Cheers,
Frank.

Hrm… I did a clean mingw32 install of it, I thought. Trying
again. I’ll see if the DLL’s differ. If so, I’ll put up another for DL.
