When will MS replace the NT-kernel in windows?
<< < (23/25) > >>
magic:
It's not developing for Windows on Ubuntu, but using Ubuntu in WSL to run software components for development for Windows on Windows. I guess it means there is some ML library somewhere which hasn't been ported to Windows yet so they came up with this kludge.

Building Linux on Windows sounds like an exercise in applied masochism.

Tried it? Things have moved on since then, but if I would happily do it again with current stuff (but not current Windwos  ;D ). Doing it that way is a bit like doing embedded systems using a standard C compiler as opposed to using the Arduino IDE.
Karel:
I forgot to mention, MS has also released Visual Studio Code for Linux.

And the list goes on...

I think of it as the opposite, since to me, a standard C compiler is a native GCC or Clang; not MSVC++ or the various GCC/Clang ports to Windows.
I do think of Intel CC as having a standard C compiler also, but building the Linux kernel with it can be iffy.

That said, I've used GNU toolchains so much not even autotools fazes me.  In any case, they're just tools: whatever works and works for you is okay in my opinion, even if I myself don't/wouldn't do it with those.
PlainName:
It was a standard gcc, not Microsoft rubbish.

What's up with a port? They do the same thing, using the same code, producing the same result.
