It well works for my projects with 32 and 64-bit targets using this same TDM MingW64. Nevertheless (it could have some importance), I don't use the last release (4.8 or more, don't remember), but the 4.7.1. > using the static makefiles with MinGW(64) is not mandatory, but just a > quick method to build without configure ... > if you want to have install targets I'd suggest you use MSYS/MinGW and > set your target through --host ... Hummm, not an option for me since my project and others libs that I periodically update are currently all built using native MinGW. Or course, the big disadvantage is not to take advantage of configure, I agree. > I do use these static makefiles to build both 32 and 64 bit targets with > various build options, but I use the normal MinGW and MinGW64 toolchains > and not the TDM one since I had problems with this too when I tried it a > while ago ... :) Funny since I have the reciprocal experience. In the past I was with the regular MinGW (32-bit only at this epoch) and I switched to TDM flavor because of issues with a big lib my current project is based-on (wxWidgets). So, of course I prefer to avoid to break my working environment (not a matter of religion, but a simple pragmatic approach. But I see another reply from you and it sounds good (I go to reply just now)...
