WinCE support for different processors, nearly

By modifying the WinCE project for SDL, I’ve managed to get it to
compile on other processors than MIPS…
SH4 and SH3 both compile flawlessly, and Arm compiles nearly flawlessly,
with the exception of SDL_RLEaccel.c.

For some reason, this compiles fine under the debug build, but the
compilation hangs for ARM debug builds. Any idea why?

Managed to compile it, by copying SDL_Rleaccel.obj from the debug build to
the release one… RLE acceleration isn’t optimized then, but everything
else is. I myself can’t actually TEST these builds, as my iPaq’s still in
the mail and can’t get the emulators to work… anyone else want to try 'em?

can you post the error messages you got when compiling
SDL_Rleaccel.c so we might be able to recommend how
to fix them?

If there were any, I would. Like I said, release builds of
SDL_Rleaccel.c for ARM simply hang the compiler - but debug one’s don’t.

Hang the compiler? Ouch!.. what compiler? are there
any other compilers that you could try?

(P.S. Part of why I ask is I’ve been nosing around in
that file lately… Haven’t submitted any changes yet
though…)

I don’t know of any other -free- compilers for WinCE other than the one
Microsoft provides. Here’s the link for it BTW, since I had one HELL of
a time finding it…
