compiling C for Linux using Buildr

[Shane Witbeck <sh...@digitalsanctum.com>]

I have a requirement to create a Buildr task to compile a C library for
Linux. My plan is to ssh to a Linux machine and do the work there, then copy
the binary to a location.
Anyone else try something like this before or does someone have a better
suggestion than what I described?


Thanks,

I'm pretty sure that you can use a local copy of GCC on *any* platform to
compile targeting Linux (or any other platform for that matter).  This would
avoid all of the annoying complexity of an extra SSH task and remote build.
