   Apr 4, 2020 · No. Whether you start MSYS2 via msys2.exe, mingw32.exe, or mingw64.exe, you get a Bash shell with various Linux utilities available like ls, grep, make, and tar. The shell and those utilities use the POSIX emulation provided by msys-2.0.dll.

   I use msys2 to setup the latest mingw/gcc and clang branch on windows. It's all seemless. I use them as I use a lot of C dependancies and MSVC is real poor at handling c projects.

   For mingw, you want to download and install MSYS2. Using the builtin terminal, search for gcc pacman -Ss gcc. You can install gcc for "mingw32", "mingw64", or "ucrt64"; I always use "ucrt64" pacman -S ucrt64/mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-gcc.

   But then, I have two versions of Qt, Msys2's and their own community install, and one messes with the other, so they don't work together very well but it is usable. Clang is supposedly compatible with MSVC so I can use Qt's installer for windows directly because the binaries work.

   Mar 16, 2019 · I greatly prefer this to using plain MingW and MSYS. ( This does not work any more with cygwin 1.7.6. gcc: The -mno-cygwin flag has been removed; use a mingw-targeted cross-compiler. MSYS is a collection of GNU utilities such as bash, make, gawk and grep to allow building of applications and programs

   Is there a difference between MinGW and MSYS2?

   • No, there's no particular difference, and you should be able to use your existing compiler if you add it to PATH (directly from the shell, since I think by default it doesn't respect PATH from Windows settings). But why would you? MSYS2 is one of the best MinGW distributions, consistently having an up-to-date GCC version and such.

   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

   Does MSYS2 have a MinGW-w64 toolchain?

   • MSYS2 provides two mingw-w64 toolchains actually: you get a choice of an i686 (32-bit) toolchain which makes native Windows binaries that can run on any Windows computer, or an x86_64 (64-bit) toolchain that makes native Windows binaries that only work on 64-bit Windows. You can install both of these at the same time.

   What is the difference between mingw-64 and Cygwin?

   • Mingw-64 is just a more recent and better supported version of Mingw that also supports Windows 64 bit. Cygwin, while also including Mingw (?) to support GCC on Windows, provides a POSIX compatibility layer through a DLL that all programs are linked to by default.

   • At work we deploy our desktop apps to Linux and Windows, using gcc for first and msvc for the latter. For mingw, you want to download and install MSYS2. Using the builtin terminal, search for gcc pacman -Ss gcc. You can install gcc for "mingw32", "mingw64", or "ucrt64"; I always use "ucrt64" pacman -S ucrt64/mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-gcc .

   Is Cygwin required to use GCC on Windows?

   • GCC is just one of the many C/C++ compilers out there. @Celeritas Cygwin is not required to use GCC on Windows, MinGW (-w64) is (to provide system headers and libraries). It is desirable to have GCC on Windows, because it has better C++11 language support (library is still lacking in view of MSVS2012), fortran, C99 (C11 upcoming) support, etc...

   May 12, 2021 · Specifically, the difference between MSYS (msys2.exe) and MINGW64 (mingw64.exe) is that MSYS has the Cygwin C standard library and MINGW64 has the MSVCRT (Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime) C standard library. The documentation says: "If you are unsure, go with UCRT64."
