MinGW-w64

Welcome to MinGW-w64, a fork of the MinGW32 project. From this site, you can download and install MinGW-w64 and its libraries and helpers, or navigate through various topics such as tutorials or reference documentation. Experience the 64 bits revolution with MinGW-w64. Mingw-w64 is useful to both users and developers. End-users may enjoy the immense amount of libraries available through package managers. Developers may take advantage of the build tools and toolchains, or use the modern C++11 runtime. It has forked in 2007 in order to provide support for 64 bits and new APIs. It has since then gained widespread use and distribution.

MinGW-w64 Overview

MinGW-w64 is a collection of freely available and freely distributable Windows-specific header files and import libraries combined with GNU compilers to build Windows programs. MinGW-w64 is a free, ready-to-use, native Windows toolchain for building C, C++, and Fortran software using GCC and Binutils. It brings the powerful development environment of GCC to Windows developers. We distribute binary builds for i686-w64-mingw32 (32 bits) or x86_64-w64-mingw32 (64 bits).

The application provides source code. Our primary focus is on supporting the new features of the C11 standard, but MinGW-w64 supports C99 and most of the features from C++98/03 too. MinGW-w64 is a portable, easy to install GCC for Windows. It provides a development environment for native Windows apps on all Windows versions since Windows XP, known as mingw32 on earlier systems, and mingw64 on 64 bits systems.

Unlike the majority of other compilers which have only been updated to support 64 bits in the last years, MinGW-w64 has been in fact using the same toolchain to build 32 bits executables and libraries since 2007 and 64 bits ones since 2011. MinGW-w64 is an advancement of the original mingw.org project, created to support the GCC compiler on Windows systems.
