   can use msvc redists rather than mingw ones. From Linux, the MSVC support isn't built-in. One can probably install it if one has the proper licensing for MSVC. But the OP wants to cross-compile, so on Linux, Clang with --target=x86_64-w64-windows-msvc won't work out of the box.

   Dont do that. dont use it. simply code inside a container (Docker). Its being called cotainer development. Since its inside a linux-based container, you have more flexibility.

   Mar 9, 2016 · Two ways can be considered to build OCCT using MinGW - CMake and Code::Blocks project files generator (tcl-based genproj.bat tool packaged with OCCT). CMake supports Code::Blocks project files as well ("CodeBlocks - MinGW Makefiles"), but in contrast to genproj.bat , CMake generates these project files without keeping OCCT projects structure and relies on Makefiles rather than built-in Code ...

   Apr 22, 2016 · 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. I have tried to use link-time optimization with MinGW-w64, but I have failed.

   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.

   Apr 4, 2015 · MinGW(-w64) are projects providing Free (as in Public Domain) Win32 headers and libraries. You can see this as a Free replacement for the headers and libraries in the Windows SDK (of old). These can be used in conjunction with GCC. Both projects and other third parties provide native GCC builds for Windows, which do not need Cygwin at all.

   Is MSVC better than MinGW-w64?

   • It is nice that the binaries become smaller with MinGW-w64 and link-time optimization, but the code also becomes a little bit slower in some cases. I am not sure yet whether it is the right choice for me. With MSVC both the binary sizes and the code execution times were reduced, but the effect is rather small. Benjamin

   Is GCC a good compiler for OCCT?

   • Although quite rarely used on Windows, GCC might be still reasonable choice for developers within particular scenarios. OCCT relies on msvc as a main compiler on Windows platform. However, since OCCT 7.0.0 (see related issue on bugtracker #0027197) it is now also possible to use GCC (MinGW-w64) for building.
