   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.

   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.

   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.

   Apr 22, 2016 · 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.

   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.

   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.

   What's the difference between MinGW-w64 & MinGW-builds?

   • MinGW-w64 is a improved version which supports both 32bit and 64bit, and some more of the WinAPI (still not all, because thats much work, but more than MinGW). 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.

   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

   Nov 25, 2014 · Yes, IMO your best option on Windows is to stick with MSVC or ABI compatible compilers. As for missing out on the 'new and shiny stuff', if you're just learning the new things then you can just stick to learning what MSVC supports and you won't be bothered.
