Description Jonathan M Davis 2011-02-11 02:19:59 UTC 
Phobos can build with OS=win32wine to build the Windows version with wine on Linux. However, druntime does not. And since you have to have druntime built to build Phobos, that makes using OS=win32wine with Phobos a bit of a pain.

So, I'd very much like it if the posix.mak makefile for druntime was updated to include a build for OS=win32wine so that it can be built in wine.
Comment 1 Alex Rønne Petersen 2012-10-09 18:14:39 UTC 
Can you provide a patch for this? I imagine porting over the stuff from the Phobos posix.mak shouldn't be too hard, but I don't have a Wine environment to test with.
Comment 2 Andrei Alexandrescu 2016-10-14 14:36:08 UTC 
This would be great because it would allow us to unittest for Windows (at least to some extent) on Linux machines. FWIW I'd added such for Phobos a long time ago and it worked but it has since bitrotten (and probably disappeared)
Comment 3 Mathias LANG 2020-01-17 09:10:40 UTC 
We can now use `build.d` to build under wine as opposed to the Makefile.
See discussion here for a use case: https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/10731#issuecomment-575538851

Closing as WONTFIX since the functionality is here but not in the way the issue requests it.
