   Apr 4, 2015 · To use GCC's C++ compiler, I suggest you use either my packages (to create 32-bit and 64-bit executables) or mingw-builds. Alternatively, you can install Cygwin and use its setup.exe to install the MinGW-w64 cross-compiler and use it from there, but if you do not need near-perfect Unix emulation for build scripts, I'd suggest against it.

   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.

   Nov 5, 2015 · The names are quite clear to me: cygwin32-gcc-g++ is a compiler for 32 bit cygwin. gcc-g++ is the basic 64 bit compiler (you probably must install this one). mingw-gcc-g++ is a 32 bit compiler for native 32 bit Windows.

   Sep 5, 2022 · You should almost always just use the default/preferred compiler for your OS. So Visual C++ on Windows, GCC on Gnu/Linux, and LLVM on Mac. There's occasions where this isn't feasible or desirable, but you won't encounter those while learning the core language and standard library.

   Is MinGW a GCC port for Windows?

   • MinGW is a GCC-port for Windows. Not all of the Windows API is supported (but for many programs the supported stuff is sufficient) and it´s only for 32bit-Programs (which often can run on 64bit-Windows too, but some can´t, and you can´t compile them as 64bit).

   What are mingw32-* versions?

   • mingw32-* versions are the names for the compilers that cross-compile to the "mingw" target. In this case this is the same as the system target. You should typically compile C code with a "gcc" variant, and c++ code with a "g++" variant. Use -o filename in order to specify the output filename, the default is a.exe

   Does MinGW-w64 have a compiler?

   • MinGW-w64 only provides their source code, but no binaries to "just use" the compiler. MinGW-builds is a somewhat separate project to provide binaries in the most useful configurations. To get a specialized build of MinGW-w64, manual compiling is still possible. Using the MinGW-builds self-installer is the easiest way, if nothing unusual is needed.

   Does MinGW install Linux?

   • Also see here for help with the self-installer. Mingw compiles your code to Windows binaries that run under Windows. Windows subsystem for Linux (WSL) makes Linux binaries. You can install other Linux programs under WSL, except if you need a graphical interface. You can access the Windows filesystem from WSL, but not vice versa.

   What's the difference between MinGW-w64 & MinGW-builds?

   • 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. MinGW-builds is a somewhat separate project to provide binaries in the most useful configurations.
