Hi, I have a new windows 7 machine, but I have a mac and unix background.
I'm having trouble getting mingw to a useful state. My goal is to be able
to build multiplatform packages, such as ffmpeg, from source on my own
machine.
I downloaded the built binaries for windows64 (a build from rubenvb was
recommended), but there's no shell. I'm not sure how I can run a configure
with what I have so far. I have a couple questions from here:
Do I need some other library? Or should I try to build the shell using
the compiler provided (seems like a real chore)?
If I install cygwin, will that shell work with mingw? Do the two libraries
conflict with each other? I wish to avoid creating any dependency on
cygwin for the build targets, and so mingw seems cleaner.
Thanks, and sorry if these questions are answered in a wiki or faq; I
looked but couldn't find any answers.
