host 2fda0c785188ae94fba921c1b8f6f2c005faf1d4 doc: Drop no longer required notes for Windows builds (Hennadii Stepanov) f09ed92be132ebcb91b459c87d640a14b4b54336 build: Try posix-specific CXX first for mingw32 host (Hennadii Stepanov) Pull request description: On master (1186910b6b7ba7c7e5193c76f33f25825e6cc0b7), when cross-compiling for Windows using our depends build system, we must manually choose the POSIX thread model for the `x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++` compiler. This PR improves the build system to make this choice automa**g**ically.

2018-02-14Merge #12232: Improve "Turn Windows Features On or Off" stepWladimir J. van der Laan
9b6454c Improve "Turn Windows Features On or Off" step (Ernest Hemingway) Pull request description: Originally, this readme suggests searching for 'turn' to open this dialog but this will not necessarily work on all windows 10 PCs. It's better to use the executable name instead, which is consistent across installations.

2017-09-07Merge #10779: Create dependencies.mdWladimir J. van der Laan
e91b96192 Create dependencies.md, and link dependencies file from README & build docs (flack) Pull request description: As @fanquake mentioned in #8639, this should probably be a file in `doc/`, so I went ahead and pulled the issue text via the github API and dumped it into a file. No modifications made, except one spelling fix. This makes the info easier to find, and it will get a proper version history, too.

2016-11-25doc: Improve windows build instructions using Linux subsystemWladimir J. van der Laan
I did a build on a windows 10 laptop and took notes, and tried to improve the document: - It's the Linux subsystem for Windows, not the other way around. - Split out dependencies: general ones, 64-bit, 32-bit. Remove the reference to `build-unix.md`, easy enough to be self-contained. - Place 64-bit instructions first. 99% will want these. - Installation instructions: recommend using `/` for prefix, same as we do on gitian builds. This will allow copying the files to a usable (from Windows) place using just `make DESTDIR=...`. - Remove double spaces / consistent width reformatting.
2016-10-17Documentation for Building on Windows with WSLpoole_party
The new Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) allows a user to run a bash shell directly on Windows in an Ubuntu based environment. This can be used to cross-compile Bitcoin directly on Windows without the need for a separate Linux VM or Server. The instructions included in this commit explain how to configure the environment and build Bitcoin Core using this new feature.
