Can I generate exe from ubuntu

I'm using Ubuntu and I use Code::Blocks as my IDE, I'm still a student and my professor wants us to write and compile some c++ programs and give him the exes to check them

Is there a way for me to generate exe files on my Linux os ?

ps: I'm new to Linux so take it easy on me.

Thanks

You need a cross-compilation. You can use mingw tool chain, if your want 32bit Windows application, install mingw32. Here are the detailed instructions for using it with IDE CodeBlocks.

If you want to build 64-bit applications, try mingw-w64 fork.

Also, then you could run the compiled application (or, even some native windows applications, compiled on Windows) in Linux under Wine:

sudo apt-get install wine
wine myapp.exe
