![]() Differs from MINGW64 path, #by just the prepended directory. The difference between these three launchers, is the path : MINGW32# echo $PATH /mingw32/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/c/Windows/System32:/c/Windows:/c/Windows/System32/Wbem:/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0/:/usr/bin/site_perl:/usr/bin/vendor_perl:/usr/bin/core_perl #Has /mingw32/bin, prepended, and is #missing /opt/bin comparing to MSYS #path. ![]() ![]() One will launch the MSYS2 Mingw 64 terminal, another will launch the MSYS2 Mingw 32 terminal, and the last one will launch the MSYS2 MSYS terminal. Ĭlick next, on the first screen, next for the install folder, next for the start menu shortcuts, after that msys2 will start installing. To install MSYS2, download the installer from the MSYS2 website, and double click it. īoth environment, provide both compilers, the MSYS2 environment provides a package manager, pacman, that allows the installation of packages, whereas Cygwin does not provide a package manager, package installation is done through the installer, each time a package is to be installed or removed. To install these compilers, two unix like environment, which provide unix commands in the form of windows executables, are available, the first one is the Cygwinenvironment, and the second one is MSYS2 environment. The produced executable, does not depended on cygwin1.dll, it just depends on windows libraries. įor source code, that only uses the windows api, the mingw-gcc compiler can be used. In both cases, the cygwin1.dll library, must be made available to the executing program. ![]() Ĭygwin-gcc, can also be used to compile source code, which uses the windows api. įor source code, that uses the posix api, the cygwin-gcc compiler can be used, it provides a substantial implementation of the posix api, provided by the cygwin1.dll library. ![]() Two options for compiling C and C++, and other kinds of source code files under windows, are : the cygwin-gcc compiler, and the mingw-gcc compiler. Install the Mingw and the Cygwin C/C++ compilers under windows ![]()
