This is quite confusing :) > Well, this we handle as a pretty private choice ;) The problem is as of today, i'm not comfortable enough with the whole MinGW-w64 world to make a rational choice. As explained before, i cannot yet compile all my projects with MinGW-w64 (Delay-loading problems not solved yet), so i would try user builds sometimes, until i'm sure i can go for it and keep a svn copy of the whole source tree updated and built by my own. For now, i will rely on your advices guys :) > The builds by > Ruben will become - at least so it is planned - official releases of > mingw-w64 for specific gcc-version. Good to know. Is Ruben's build a native one, so i can use it with programs like Qt which cannot be ./configured with target / arch / host specifications? > Ozkan's toolchain are well maintained, don't provide all new > features/enhancements, but are known > to be pretty robust.

This MinGW-w64 universe is quite large :D > I would go for Ruben's build, but this is just my private choice. Ok, i will try this one too if it's native.
