I'm trying to compile a Windows cpp program on Linux Debian based and I have wingw-w64 installed but on the console it doesn't see it.. How can I solve the problem?
When I try this I get:
└─$ g++-mingw-w64
g++-mingw-w64: command not found
How can I solve this problem?
mingw-w32 works good.
Thank you!
That doesn't look like the right file name.
The correct file name will start with the triplet <arch>-w64-mingw32 where <arch> is the processor architecture: i686 for x86, x86_64 for x64 (maybe even aarch64 for Windows on ARM).
Use:
i686-w64-mingw32-gcc (C)i686-w64-mingw32-g++ (C++)x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc (C)x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ (C++)Tip:
To check what platform the generated output (.exe/.dll) runs on use the file command. For example:
echo "int main () { return 0; }" | x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc -xc - -o test.exe
file test.exe
which returns:
test.exe: PE32+ executable (console) x86-64, for MS Windows
