cross compile from Linux to Win

Hello,

Can the Linux ICC be used in order to produce executables that run on Win. We are developing software that depends heavily on numerical computation and we want to use intel compiler to achieve a boost in our performance, but our budget currently allows for only one platform license.

I have checked this post and it states that this is not possible, however it is a four year old post and I was wondering if there has been any change. Also, should such a feature exist, would it retain the expected better performance, compared to an executable compiled with MSVC or cross-compiled with MINGW from Linux to Win.

I have searched in SO and in this forum but I haven't found a specific answer myself.

Thank you in advace,

Kyr

There has been no change afaik toward such cross compilation support. Current gcc does have much better auto vector and openmp than msvc.
