question: are pre-built trucov binaries available anywhere for Microsoft Windows? #171

The Downloads area of this website has binaries only for Debian and Ubuntu 
Linux.  Are binaries for Microsoft Windows available anywhere?

[I have started to try and build trucov myself, using Visual C++ 2008 Express, 
with only partial success....]

One of the core technologies behind trucov is the GCC's -fprofile-arcs and 
-ftest-coverage compiler options.

Visual studio does not have these options (nor should it).

Theoretically, it would be possible to build an alternate back end that ran off 
output from the visual studio compiler.  But, this is an extreme undertaking as 
likely more than half of trucov's code base will need to rewritten or 
significantly altered.
