   G++ is the gnu C++ compiler. It is availible on mac (iirc) and linux and ported to windows as part of MinGW. (minimal gnu for windows). The complementary C compiler is called GCC. "gpp" is presumably some alias for a g++ with certain predefined command line arguments. MSVC is microsofts compiler.

   I do all of my development from Visual Studio using CMake. I can compile using MSVC from windows, gcc10/gcc9 from WSL or clang (can't remember the version) from the FreeBSD box. As of VS 2019 version 16.8 (10NOV20), MSVC is C11/C17 compliant.

   Is MinGW GCC a native program?

   • The bash that comes with MinGW is not a native Windows program. It depends on the MSYS DLL, which is a fork of the Cygwin DLL. Same for many of the other Unix utilities that come with MinGW/MSYS. MinGW gcc indeed is a native program though. Make is available both in a native version and an MSYS one.

   Which is better Cygwin or MinGW?

   • Cygwin emulates entire POSIX environment, while MinGW is minimal tool set for compilation only (compiles native Win application.) So if you want to make your project cross-platform the choice between the two is obvious, MinGW. Although you might consider using VS on Windows, GCC on Linux/Unices.

   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

   Do I need a GCC compiler?

   • Answer #3: Yes, Use GCC compiler. It is a cross platform compiler. To compile your source code in Windows use MinGW that provides GCC compiler for Windows and compiles your source code to native Windows program. Do not use any advanced programming features (like Windows API) to compile your source code in all platforms successfully.

   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...

   Is gcc-g++ a 64 bit compiler?

   • gcc-g++ is the basic 64 bit compiler (you probably must install this one). So it all depends if you run in a 64 bit Windows and what target you want (cygwin or native Windows). mingw64-x86_64-gcc-g++ is listed twice. The "magic" of cut & paste! You must log in to answer this question.

   Feb 16, 2021 · For a simpler option, there's a smaller C/C++ IDE called Code::Blocks, which you would probably want the download that includes the MinGW compiler. MinGW is basically a Windows version of the GCC/G++ compiler, which is common on Linux systems (to be clear: MinGW compiles native Windows binaries).
