Creating a cross-platform C ++ library

Question

I wanted to create a cross-platform 2D game engine, and I would like to know how to create a cross-platform project with a Makefile, so I can compile it to the platforms that I choose using a custom rule for any platform. I am working on a Windows environment with Visual C ++ Express 2008, so it would be nice if I can use Visual C ++ Express as an IDE.

My platforms are YET Nintendo DS and PC.

Please explain to me what to do.

Thanks Tamir.
