My purpose is use only MSVC to build GCC. It is not impossible,
because GCC's sources are ANSI C compliant, but seems very hard due
to many specific *nix - dependencies, such as unistd.h(Am I wrong?) and others.
I worked with MSVC many years, so it will be very dufficult to change my
course :)
And it will be great surprise to all Win-developers who want explore
complicated GCC's code - convinient VS.Net IDE, powerfull Boundchecker and
exciting VisualAssist! :)
I know about "religious wars" between GNU
community and world of commercial software, but...
Maybe someone can help?
