Compiling (esp C/C++) How do you like to do it?

[Trev]

I never targeted AROS, but for the others, I used a combination of vbcc and GCC running on Windows.

vbcc is great, but when compiled from source on Windows, the host binaries do not emulate the target's floating point environment. It's been years since I've done any Amiga programming, so I'm not sure how vbcc handles that today.

I usually built my own native GCC binaries from the adtools repository under MinGW. Cygwin is probably easier to manage, but at the time, Cygwin support for 64-bit Windows was very poor.

Is it possible to debug a program from outside of WinUAE?
That would be my dream setup. Compile in Eclipse and target 68k or now PPC in WinUAE... and debug in Eclipse...

I suppose this would require some form of remote debugger...

Not that I'm aware of but if you hit Shift-F12 in winuae it brings up the built-in 68k debugger.
