	~~I have given up on this, maybe someone else wants to try? The following is what I tried, but I could never get configure to build DLLs.~~		==== Ubuntu and mingw32 ====

	~~iMath could maybe be cross-compiled for windows by installing the~~ mingw32 ~~package. The following steps are necessary to build iMath for windows under Debian GNU Linux:~~

			* Install the mingw32 package
	* Compile and install the CLN library (run configure with <code>--host=i586-mingw32msvc --prefix=/usr/i586-mingw32msvc --without-gmp</code>, then make and make install). Maybe it needs to be patched (see [http://thep.physik.uni-mainz.de/pipermail/cln-list/2005-April/000116.html]).		* Compile and install the CLN library (run configure with <code>--host=i586-mingw32msvc --prefix=/usr/i586-mingw32msvc --without-gmp</code>, then make and make install). Maybe it needs to be patched (see [http://thep.physik.uni-mainz.de/pipermail/cln-list/2005-April/000116.html]).
	* Compile and install the gmp library. (run configure with <code>--host=i586-mingw32msvc --prefix=/usr/i586-mingw32msvc</code>, then make and make install). On my system, this requires a patch to configure: Replace the statement <code>BITS_PER_MP_LIMB=`expr 8 \* ac_cv_sizeof_mp_limb_t`</code> with <code>BITS_PER_MP_LIMB=32</code> (or whatever value is correct for your system. To find this out, insert an <code>echo ac_cv_sizeof_mp_limb_t</code> and multiply by 8 manually).		* Compile and install the gmp library. (run configure with <code>--host=i586-mingw32msvc --prefix=/usr/i586-mingw32msvc</code>, then make and make install).
	* Compile and install the ginac library (run configure with <code>--host=i586-mingw32msvc --prefix=/usr/i586-mingw32msvc --with-cln-prefix=/usr/i586-mingw32msvc</code>, then make and make install).

You can ignore the error about libreadline not being found, since we will not be needing ginsh.
	* Compile and install the eqc library.
	* If make reports an error while compiling input_lexer.cc, edit the file config.h created by configure, and at the end, put <code>#define YYTEXT_POINTER 1</code>. If you don't want to rebuild all the files compiled up to then, run make -t, remove all files with size 0, and re-run make.
	* Probably, linking of ginsh.exe and viewgar.exe in GiNaC will also fail, but since they are not necessary, just run <code>make -t</code> in the subdirectories ginsh and tools.		* Probably, linking of ginsh.exe and viewgar.exe in GiNaC will also fail, but since they are not necessary, just run <code>make -t</code> in the subdirectories ginsh and tools.

			==== Ubuntu, mingw32, wine and Microsoft Visual C++ ====

			It seems that an Openoffice extension for Windows must be compiled with MSVC to be compatible. Here is a way to do this from within Ubuntu.

			First, get Microsoft Visual (Express) C++ 2008 to work under wine. Installing with vcsetup.exe, or installing Visual Studio is pretty hopeless and an overkill anyway.

			* Get a working installation under Windows (the express version is available for free, and works fine)
			* In Ubuntu, copy cl.exe, c1xx.dll, c1.dll, c2.dll, lib.exe, link.exe, msdp80.dll and clui.dll to .wine/drive_c/windows/system32/ or some other location in your PATH
			* Run winetricks vcrun2008
			* Override msvcr90.dll with native version in the wine configuration
			* cl.exe, link.exe and lib.exe now work

			Install the required libraries and include files somewhere (is there a better/standard location?)
			<code>
			mkdir ~/.wine/drive_c/cl
			mkdir ~/.wine/drive_c/cl/VC
			cp -aR /c/Programme/Microsoft Visual Studio 9/VC/lib/ ~/.wine/drive_c/cl/VC
			cp -aR mvs/VC/include/ ~/.wine/drive_c/cl/VC
			cd .wine/drive_c/cl/VC/include/
			cp time.h sys

			mkdir ~/.wine/drive_c/cl/SDK
			cp -aR /c/Programme/Microsoft\ SDKs/Windows/v6.0A/Lib/ ~/.wine/drive_c/cl/SDK
			cp -aR /c-ro/Programme/Microsoft\ SDKs/Windows/v6.0A/Include/ ~/.wine/drive_c/cl/SDK
			</code>

			You can now run <code>./configure CC="wine cl" CXX="wine cl" LD="wine link" CPPFLAGS="-DEBUG -MD -EHsc -IC:/cl/VC/include -IC:/cl/SDK/Include -IC:/cl/include" LIB="C:/cl/VC/lib;C:/cl/SDK/lib;C:/cl/lib" --host=i586-mingw32msvc</code>. There are still a lot of libtool issues which are supposed to be resolved in version 2.4.

			Anyway, after hacking away the libtool problems, GiNaC compiled and all 58 tests passed successfully.
