Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #10633: mingw project was migrated to mingw-w64 6 mos to a year ago https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/10633 <p> <a href="http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_56_0.html">http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_56_0.html</a> under compilers tested, windows you have listed mingw. </p> <p> mingw is no longer maintained and has been migrated to mingw-w64. </p> <p> you might be confusing mingw-w64 with mingw which are different projects. it gives folks the wrong idea as to which compiler to use. </p> <p> the current state of mingw-w64 is that a number of cross compilers (auto builds, mostly for linux and darwin) are generated by the build system. the personal donsheng daily builds seem stable: </p> <p> sf.net mingw-w64 prohject, toolchains targeting win32 and win64, personal builds, dongsheng daily </p> <p> MSYS can be used for a build environment but it must be configured. I have a configuration for that, but it needs to be submitted to the project yet when it gets completed. </p> <p> interestingly enough, this bug tracking system rejects my posting of the compiler URLs as spam and says I should have completed the captcha, but no captcha was given. I am using firefox on win7x64. </p> <p> at best, "mingw" might be a misnomer. </p> en-us Boost C++ Libraries /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/10633 Trac 1.4.3 Matias Capeletto Sun, 01 Feb 2015 22:06:37 GMT owner changed https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/10633#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/10633#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>owner</strong> changed from <span class="trac-author">Matias Capeletto</span> to <span class="trac-author">Daniel James</span> </li> </ul> Ticket
