Mar 9, 2016 · Open CASCADE Technology 7.0.0.rc can be built using MinGW-w64 on Windows platform. MinGW is a minimalistic development environment for developing native Windows applications based on GCC. Project MinGW-w64 is its fork aimed to support 64-bit target and new APIs.
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.
Aug 30, 2014 · 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.
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. MSVC code generation quality is almost on par with GCC and Clang. It doesn't quite support C99 and probably never ...
I use MinGW-w64 with C::B , and also have a separate install of Cygwin for shell utilities. This is good so long as you don't need a GUI. VS Community is probably the "highest score" if you add up the scores of the compiler and the GUI builder.
Dec 11, 2023 · I found out that Mingw is lightweight, which I actually don't want. I want something with more power and control. And I also want to know if that recommendation is available in VS code or not. Note that it has to be 64-bit. And also, which extensions for VS code I should use will also be great.
