   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.

   Some software only supports MSVC on Windows (e.g. CPython, including native modules) so you may have to use it. The only advantage is that you get a statically-linked CRT — versus linking against an old msvcrt.dll per Mingw-w64 — though historically Microsoft's UCRT has been kind of buggy, and those bugs then get baked into your binaries.

   MinGW because it's the closest to GCC and gives me a good indication of whether or not my code will compile cross-platform without having to wait for the build system. My code has to run on OSX, Linux and Windows. Visual C++ because it often has higher performance with math calculations than MinGW. It's often comparable to GCC on Linux though.

   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.

   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 MinGW better than MSVC?

   • In general they produce binaries of more or less comparable performance. But implementation of c++11 synchronization primitives in mingw, at least up to not so distant past, was much much worse than in msvc (2015). And windows environment is not very friendly for gcc based toolchain that spawns a lot of processes.

   Is MinGW-w64 Seh better than MSVC 2010?

   • As it can be seen, average performance of MSVC 2010, 2017, and MinGw-w64 SEH is nearly the same. Though, many tests show essentially different CPU time between MinGw SEH and MSVC 2010 (mostly within +-50%), but these deviations go in both directions and have not much effect on the average.

   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

   Can I use Visual Studio compiler with MinGW & Visual Studio?

   • If you have any info on this, thanks! Visual studio compiler is (or will be soon) available as a command line standalone application. So you can use any ide and compile with both compilers anyways. Personally I use eclipse and write code that compiles both with mingw and visual studio via cmake :)

   Nov 5, 2024 · When zig is responsible for compiling all of the C, C++, and Zig code for a given project, then there is 0 downsides to using mingw-w64 as the C ABI. The upsides are huge: no dependency on MSVC being installed.
