[Msys2-users] newbie: setting up full w32 and w64 toolchains

[Don Raikes]

Hello,



I need to be able to compile both win32 and win64 native executables from the same source, and msys2 seems like my best alternative.



Is there a set of packages I should install that would give me a fully working development environment for both windows 32 and windows 64? I realize I have to invoke the proper shell mingw32.exe or mingw64.exe depending on the flavor of executable I wish to compile, but I just want to make sure I get the full set of packages for both environments.



Any help is greatly appreciated.

Don

I believe there are some pages in the Wiki that explain the answers to your
questions: https://github.com/msys2/msys2/wiki

But the quick answer is:

pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain mingw-w64-i686-toolchain
