- Fedora has a very nice mingw32 cross compiler framework with lots of pre-compiled libraries. The packages are all included in the official package repository and it's just the matter of running 'yum install mingw32-gcc' to set the compiler up. See the Fedora MinGW project page for more information.

There are two permitted ways to provide MinGW builds of software in Fedora: Separate source packages: There are distinct RPM spec files for the native and MinGW builds, maintained as independent components of Fedora. This is the traditional approach to MinGW packaging in Fedora.

As of Fedora 17 it is possible to easily build (cross-compile) binariesfor the win32 and win64 targets. This is realized using the mingw-w64toolchain: http://mingw-w64.sf.net/. Using this toolchain allows you tobuild binaries for the following programming languages: C, C++,Objective-C, Objective-C++ and Fortran.
To be able to build binaries for the win32 or win64 targets you need toinstall some packages using yum or the graphical software installer. Here's a chart indicating which packages provide which functionality: Once you've installed one (or more) of these packages you should have anew folder on your filesystemcalled /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mi...
Now that you've installed a compiler it's time to use it. See thefollowing chart to find out what command you should use to run thecompiler: So if you want to compile a .cpp file and make it an executable for thewin64 target, then you could using this command: For a full list of all command line arguments which are supported by thevarious compilers...
Most open source projects are using the autoconf infrastructure(./configure; make; make install). This type of projects can be builtvery easily for the win32 or win64 targets. Just install one of thecompiler packages mentioned earlier and replace ./configure with either'mingw32-configure' or 'mingw64-configure' (depending whether you wantto build f...
Another popular build system is CMake. Like with themingw32-configure/mingw64-configure scripts we've also made it easy tobuild packaging using CMake. For this, you need to have the cmakepackage installed first. Then you can use the mingw32-cmake ormingw64-cmake commands to run CMake with the correct environment set forthe given target. Once the mi...
The Qt project also has written a build system called qmake (actually:qmake-qt4). This build system is used by various packages which are Qtbased. For this build system we've also prepared tools to makecross-compilation for the win32 and win64 targets easy. Just install thepackages mingw32-qt-qmake or mingw64-qt-qmake. Once these are installedyou c...
All the helper scripts which are mentioned earlier can also be used whenbuilding RPMS using a .spec file. To find out more about writing .specfiles to build cross-compiled packages you should take a look at theFedora MinGW packaging guidelines:https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:MinGWThis set of guidelines also contains an example .spec file

May 19, 2013 · The MinGW cross-compilers and binutils are Fedora binaries and are therefore placed in %{_bindir} (ie. /usr/bin) according to the FHS and Fedora guidelines. The MinGW cross-compilers and binutils which generate i686 binaries for Windows are named: %{_bindir}/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc. %{_bindir}/i686-w64-mingw32-g++.
