   MinGW provides headers and libraries so that GCC (a compiler suite, not just a "unix/linux compiler") can be built and used against the Windows C runtime. It provides sporadic extensions, mostly where the C and/or C++ standards require additional functionality that hasn't been implemented in Windows' versions of the C library (think C11 currently).

   MinGW was originally called mingw32 ("Minimalist GNU for W32"), following the GNU convention whereby Windows is shortened as "W32". [3][4] The numbers were dropped in order to avoid the implication that it would be limited to producing 32-bit binaries.

   The project's name change from mingw32 to mingw is to prevent the implication that mingw will only works on 32 bit systems. As 64 and higher bit machines become more common, mingw will evolve to work with them.

   How does MinGW work?

   • Mingw uses the Microsoft runtime libraries, distributed with the Windows operating system. Unlike other ports of gcc to Windows, the runtime libraries are not distributed using Gnu's General Public License. You, therefore, do not have to distribute your source code with your programs.

   Is MinGW a 32-bit program?

   • Although programs produced under MinGW are 32-bit executables, they can be used both in 32 and 64-bit versions of Windows. The development of the MinGW project has been forked with the creation in 2005–2008 of an alternative project called Mingw-w64.

   Does MinGW support POSIX?

   • In MinGW, you can write native windows programs (by calling the native Win32 C interface), but you cannot compile everything uses POSIX functionality not present in windows. The most evident case is the missing of the standard interface of MinGW and a limited support.
