I installed mingw-64 via the cygwin (cygwin64) package manager. I am
running Windows 8.
I compiled an example C++ program using the x86_64-w64-mingw32-c++
compiler. When I run the program I receive the error:
error while loading shared libraries: libgcc_s_seh-1.dll: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
This dll is actually present in directory
/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/libgcc_s_seh-1.dll.
If I include the directory /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/ in
my PATH environment variable the program runs fine, but I haven't seen
anything that says that I am supposed to do this, so I think something in
my environment is not properly configured. Does anyone have any idea why I
am getting this error or is including this directory in my PATH the right
thing to do?
Note 1: I am compiling an example program from the CImg library (an image
processing library). The full compilation command is:
x86_64-w64-mingw32-c++ tetris.cpp -mwindows -D cimg_OS=2 -lgdi32
Note 2: As you might expect, if I add the compilation option "-static" I no
longer get the error.
Thanks
Tony Richardson
