Currently the best option for mingw is mingw-w64 for that (besides what the name suggests) supports both 32 and 64-bit targets. Also it works with any version of GCC newer than 4.4, AFAIR. > plus a number of C++ runtime library features, mingw uses GCC's stdc++ and adds only a few limitations comparing to other stdc++ targets. > and a number of MSVC features, such as SEH. Yes, SEH is a problem. FWIW, GCC 4.8 will have limited SEH support for 64-bit targets.
