--- Comment #5 from Kai Tietz <ktietz at gcc dot gnu.org> 2011-12-19 10:23:51 UTC --- Well, I wouldn't say that this was rude. The issue here is most likely, that the runtime DLLs by gcc aren't in search-path when you are trying to execute your built application. But this isn't a subject of gcc itself. I see that you have this issue, but user-support questions on how to setup environment for built applications, or what is necessary to provide along-side built-application so that they run, is more something related to gcc's user ML, or even better to ask directly for it on mingw.org's or mingw-w64's public user-mailing lists. On those later lists you can be sure that you will find a solution for your issue.
