   Nov 7, 2011 · MSVC has the huge advantage of coming with an IDE that has no equals under Windows, including debugger support. The probably best alternative for MinGW would be Code::Blocks, but there are worlds in between, especially regarding code completion and the debugger.

   I do all of my development from Visual Studio using CMake. I can compile using MSVC from windows, gcc10/gcc9 from WSL or clang (can't remember the version) from the FreeBSD box. As of VS 2019 version 16.8 (10NOV20), MSVC is C11/C17 compliant.

   I would recommend using Visual Studio if you are building something specifically for Windows (ie, you are making a GUI application or you will be using the Windows APIs). If you want to build a crossplatform console application, then I would recommend using MinGW.

   MSVC is doing the compilation job significantly faster than MinGW-w64. The DLL sizes are comparable, if optimization is set to "-O2" for MinGW-w64, with "-O3" the DLLs from MinGW-w64 are larger. Binary files compiled with MinGW-w64 are performing significantly better than those compiled with MSVC.

   Oct 18, 2022 · Do the only reason you consider mingw is because it's large? Well if you plan on developing for Windows I'd suggest going with msvc. If you don't want the installation to be too big I guess you can get away with just installing the: compiler, 1 win sdk version and the MSBuild tools.

   Is MSVC better than MinGW-w64?

   • MSVC code generation quality is almost on par with GCC and Clang. It doesn't quite support C99 and probably never will. The toolchain is not nearly as powerful or flexible as Mingw-w64. For instance, import libs are still mandatory (for outdated historical reasons), unlike Mingw-w64 where they're completely optional.

   Is MinGW better than GCC?

   • MinGW is just one port of GCC to Windows, it's not the only port. Another good compiler is Clang, which is part of LLVM. It has better Windows support than GCC does these days, because it can link to code compiled using MSVC. This is important if you're using third-party libraries.

   Is Cygwin better than MinGW?

   • Cygwin, as mentioned in another post, will have extra dependencies and possible license issues (the dependency is GPL, so your programs must be, too). MinGW does not have any such dependency or issue. MinGW also compiles significantly slower than MSVC (though precompiled headers help a little).

   Should I use GCC (MinGW) or MSYS2?

   • I would go with gcc (MinGW) or clang. If you combine it with MSyS2, you get nearly a linux-like environment. There is no reason to use MSVC, except you have to. It's a bloated compiler (Like some GBs of installation), not supporting newer C than C99 IIRC, and it is nearly unusable from the commandline

   Jul 27, 2024 · I'm making a 64bit based application for my small commercial, but it's better to use MinGW64 or MSVC2019 64 bit, what are the advantages and disadvantages of these two? I'm using dynamic not static applications. When I use MSVC on several laptops/computers, it requires vc_redistx64.
