Finish the Windows port #56

Closed AgentD closed 3 years ago

AgentD commented 4 years ago

Currently, the Windows port is still mostly experimental. The only real working port is compiled with MinGW. It has been made to work with MSVC, but the directory restructuring broke that and it needs to be fixed again. ~Also, the directory scanning code for Windows is still missing in gensquashfs.~

Lugging around files for MSVC and keeping them in sync with the automake project is a bit of a maintenance burden, especially if I use Windows like once a year. Since this is a C project, the mingw import libraries should work with MSVC anyway (last time I tried ~2008 it did), which I can conveniently generate using a cross toolchain. So I'd suspend this for now.
