Please see the doc in the folder mingw-w64-doc/howto-build/. If you want build from source, you must do the following 5 steps: *) build and install binutils for target x86_64-w64-mingw32 *) build and install mingw-w64-headers for target x86_64-w64-mingw32 *) build (all-gcc) and install (install-gcc) for target x86_64-w64-mingw32 *) build and install mingw-w64-crt for target x86_64-w64-mingw32 *) build and install gcc for target x86_64-w64-mingw32 If you want build with pthread support, it will be 7 steps, more complex, please read the document carefully. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
