I first downloaded MinGW-w64 for 32 and 64-bit Windows from SourceForge by clicking on the green button saying "Download Latest Version". But instead of finding an installer, I received a folder named 'mingw-w64-v11.0.0' containing the following subfolders:
Install Essential Development Tools and MinGW-w64 Toolchain: Run the following command to install the necessary packages: pacman -S --needed base-devel mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-toolchain just to let you know the --needed option ensures that only outdated or missing packages are installed.
The newer MinGW-w64 comes with a roughly 99% complete Windows API binding (excluding ATL and such) including x64 support and experimental ARM implementations. You may occasionally find some exotic constant undefined, but for what 99% of the people use 99% of the time, it just works perfectly well.
因为MinGW-w64必须配合gcc来使用，所以一般说MinGW-w64，指的都是MinGW-w64库+gcc编译器。 MinGW-w64和gcc都是开源软件，有一定技术能力用户可以下载它们的源码并自行编译使用。
mingw-w64 is an open source project and the developers provide source code only. If you're looking for Windows binaries then you need to download them from a third party who builds the source. There are a few configurable options when building the source (such as threading backend and exception-handling backend) so you will see some differences ...
MinGW-w64 only provides their source code, but no binaries to "just use" the compiler. MinGW-builds is a somewhat separate project to provide binaries in the most useful configurations. To get a specialized build of MinGW-w64, manual compiling is still possible. Using the MinGW-builds self-installer is the easiest way, if nothing unusual is needed.
The new MinGW-w64 version doesn’t come with a bin folder. Please i need help using the compiler.
刚刚为了安装最新的minGW折腾了半天。 目前网上能搜到的，能成功安装的教程都是这个网址的底下
pacman -S mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-gsl and from then on the GSL library will be automatically found by your compiler! Make sure any compilers and libraries you install have this package prefix: mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-. Only use unprefixed packages for misc command-line utilities (such as grep, sed, make, etc), unless you know what you're doing.
I use mingw-w64 on Linux to compile a cmake project for Windows, but I get a bunch of errors during the process like “WSACleanup was not declared in this scope”. My CMakeLists: cmake_minimum_required (...
