title: Are libraries built using the Linux subsystem in Windows 10 accessible to a Windows development environment?
body: <p>I'm currently trying to connect MongoDB to a Windows QT C++ application and am following the tutorial <a href="http://mongoc.org/libmongoc/current/installing.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>. While there Windows installation instructions are presented, to avoid having to install Visual Studio or other tools, I'm wondering if I can follow the package-manager or Linux instructions on the inbuilt Linux/ Ubuntu subsystem of Windows 10 and build the libraries in my Linux environment, later somehow accessing them from my Windows development environment.</p>
  
  <p>I don't fully understand how compilation/ byte-code works in the Linux subsystem on Windows, so I haven't been able to piece together an answer for this myself based on my understanding of the various systems involved. Any explanation or assistance would be appreciated.</p>
