Building itsutils.dll from source

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to build the XDA utils tree and itsutils.dll from source in order to play around with it a bit, but have had no luck so far. I've searched through all the forums, but couldn't find anything about building the toolset, only how to develop for actual mobile devices.
I got the source tree for the xda utils project, but the instructions on how to build them (here) are not very clear. What software do I need to have installed? Which libraries? Do I need to install an embedded version of the STL? Where can I find the "preview editions" of Platform Builder 3.0 and 4.0 in order to get the header files?
I'm running Windows XP 32-bit (I also have a 64-bit machine, though I doubt that'll make it any easier), and have installed VS 2005, the Windows Mobile 6 SDK, and eMbedded VC 4.0.
I'd really appreciate any advice or help.
Thanks in advance,
Rob

Building Android source for Windows?

Hello,
How does one build Android source code for the Windows platform? I know building natively on Windows is out, and Cygwin seems to be a hassle, too. I was wondering if there was a toolchain I could install for Ubuntu that can build the code in Linux, but the output results would be for Windows. A pointer to a tutorial would be a big help.
Thanks in advance.
Specifically, I would like to make mods to and build the SDK from source. Is this an easy thing to accomplish?

anyone else care to weigh in?

Ubuntu and P3100

Hello. I want to ask is it possible to run ubuntu on SGTab2? I mean pure desktop ubuntu, not mobile one, nor as virtual machine. All instructions I found deals with Nexus 7. The best will be installing Ubuntu as dualboot to Android(I'm using NEXT kernel, it supports dualboot). Does anybody know how to install it? Or maybe somebody even tried it?
Thank you for answer

[Q] Anyone have the Limbo apk compiled for x86 Android?

Hi
I have found the wonderful limbo emulator but only the versions compiled for ARM android devices. Does anyone have "Limbo x86.apk"? I think the latest version of limbo pc emulator is 0.9.9. I would be very grateful to try it. I'm ultimately hoping to use the kvm for x86 to have a relatively fast x86 guest OS. Seeing that x86 kvm virtualization should run fast on the Intel Android tablets, I think Limbo could be the answer.
If anyone knows how to compile the limbo sources found here: https://code.google.com/p/limbo-android/source/browse/README, that would also be very appreciated. I may end up figuring out how to compile this as a last resort. I haven't compiled anything for android before.
Thank you!

[Request for Help] Python 3.9.16 Cross Compile for armeabi for Android 4

Hey guys, I'm looking for some assistance. I would like to compile python 3.9.16 for armv7 on a device running Android 4.2.2. Yes I understand it as a very old build of android but it's all I have access to right now. I have ssh access to an ubuntu 20.04 vm running on an 64 bit server... I have scoured the net and come up empty handed. I am trying to do this so I can learn Python on my off time while I don't have access to the internet.
If you need any specific info to be able to help me please feel free to ask.
Thanks in advance
P.s. I would upgrade android version but device has a locked bootloader and no fastboot.
