All, I am struggling with getting started in mingw 64-bit. I am running WinXP64. I downloaded and installed the latest Cygwin package and installed the base system and the (presumably 32-bit tool chain) and make. I am hoping to install the 64-bit tool chain somewhere as well.
I just installed the latest snapshot: mingw-w64-bin_i686-cygwin-1.5.25-12_20080521.tar.bz2 I put the tarball in /usr in my cygwin setup and unpacked it. It seemed to install compilers and headers and libraries in a parallel directory structure to the existing compiler. I commented all the interesting calls out of a C++ test driver. What is left is a loop and some std::cout printing and some arithmetic. I compile it with x86_64-pc-mingw32-g++ and it compiles no problem. When I run it it crashes during the first iteration. This is the same behavior I've gotten from the previous snapshots of the 64-bit compilers too. I can compile static things with just gfortran but almost anything involving C++ just fails. I can compile and run "Hello, World" in 64-bits The test driver compiles and runs just fine under the base cygwin compiler. How/where are we supposed to install these compilers? Do I have the right package? Thank you, Ed ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
