Can't cross compile from linux to win32

[AndreiTS]

I'm trying to create a win32 dll, I'm running:
cargo build --target=x86_64-pc-windows-gnu --release

and getting this error:
note: /usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-ld: cannot find -lfbclient

cargo.toml:

lib.rs:

Please, try without default crate features:
rsfbclient = { version="0.16.0", features = ["pure_rust"], default-features = false }

Sorry, I said the wrong command, actually it is:
cargo build --target=i686-pc-windows-gnu --release

I tried to build in a windows virtual machine to 32bits using platform i686-pc-windows-msvc but it's not working either.

I tried compile one o examples here, with i686-pc-windows-gnu, and got the same error. Unfortunately, my experience with cross compile is very superficial.

You can help @jairinhohw ?

[jairinhohw]

Are you sure you disabled the default features of the rsfbclient crate? It should compile just fine with only the pure_rust feature.

Edit: You may want to try using the cross tool, maybe it can resolve the issue

[AndreiTS]

using cross solve it, thanks

It's working on a computer but in the other it still don't work:

But I can work with that.

[jairinhohw]

Witch computer is the one that does not work? 32 or 64 bits? Are you using the cross tool?

Maybe it is related to this issue, so it may just be unreliable to cross compile from a x64 (64bits) machine to a x86 (32bits).

[AndreiTS]

Both machines are 64bits, using cross
