MinGW is a port of the GCC to be used in Windows. • Instructions: • 1.Go to http://mingw.org/ and click download installer • 2. Execute the .exe file you downloaded from source forge and click continue. • 3. Select both msys packages as well as the basic install. Additional Packages are optional. • 4. Install the packages by going to the install menu and clicking apply changes • 5-8. Wait so long it takes four steps. • 9.Run the command 'setx PATH %PATH%;C:\\MinGW\\bin; ' • This command will add the compiler applications to the PATH(Windows searches the PATH for one line execution commands eg. dir cd are all located on the PATH.) We need to add these to the PATH so compilation can be done in one line. • Whatever step this is. • example compile command is: gcc helloWorld.c -o helloWorld.exe • I will break that command down for you. gcc is the compiler for c, helloWorld.c is a file to be compiled, -o is an option for this command that specifies the output file to the second argument given, the last argument is the output file.
