[MonoDevelop] vala cross compiling questions

[Nigel Griffin]

Hi,

Environment: Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit, Monodevelop-vala 2.2.1.

I need to have the intermediate C code generated by valac use a different toolchain for cross -compilation. I've run into a couple of issues here.

1) Where does monodevelop place the intermediate C code generated by valac?  Which I don't intend to modify this code directly, for packaging reasons I will need access to this at some point.  It seems as though monodevelop-vala deletes the intermediate C files after generating the binary.  If this is so, does anyone know how to prevent this?

2) How do I specify a C toolchain (compiler, linker etc) of choosing in monodevelop?  The preferences have a drop down box, but I only seem to be able to select gcc and not my cross compiler.
