Install Notes: How I Install MinGW GCC and CLANG/LLVM
Note that Brecht Sanders
at winlibs.com
has an excellent site
with MinGW gcc Windows builds and detailed discussions of his builds.
He is staying more current than I am and offers up-to-date builds for every
version of gcc. He separates out 32-bit from 64-bit
builds, unlike me, where I try to give you one build that can do both. This
is becoming less and less important, though, as internet estimates from
2025 suggest less than 1% of all Windows devices do not support Win64.
Sanders' philosophy is that mixing Win64 and Win32 just causes confusion.
As of 2020, I am building my own gcc packages with MSYS2.
Latest builds (25 Dec 2023):
gcc 13.2.0 install using my own personal build
clang 17.0.6 with mingw using Martin Storsjo's build.
Benchmarks can be found on my blog page.
Older installs:
gcc 12.2.0 install using my own personal build
clang 15.0.0 with mingw using Martin Storsjo's build.
gcc 11.3.0 install using my own personal build
clang 14.0.0 with mingw using Martin Storsjo's build.
gcc 11.2.0 install using my own personal build
clang 13.0.0 with mingw using Martin Storsjo's build.
clang 12.0.0 with mingw using Martin Storsjo's build.
gcc 10.3.0 install using my own personal build
gcc 9.3.1 install, using my own personal build.
For gcc 8.x and before I had been using personal builds in
the MinGW-w64 "Toolchains targetting..." folders, looking for the folders that have a lot of
download activity, but the builds aren't always maintained very promptly these days,
hence my effort to build my own package.
gcc 8.3.0 install, using Ray Linn's personal multi-lib toolchain build.
gcc 7.2.0 install, using Mingw-64 automated personal toolchain builds.
gcc 6.3.0 install, using Mingw-64 automated personal toolchain builds.
gcc 5.4.0 install, using Mingw-64 automated personal toolchain builds.
gcc 4.6.3-1 package, using Ruben Vandamme's distros.
gcc 4.5.2 "Omni-package" using Ferreri Gabriele's distros: Useful if you want a package that you can set up on any Windows PC (32-bit or 64-bit) which can compile to either 32-bit or 64-bit exes.
gcc 4.5.2 64-bit gcc multilib, again using Ferreri Gabriele's distros: Useful if you just want something for your 64-bit Windows 7 PC which can compile both 32-bit and 64-bit exes.
