Using Mingw GCC

Read http://mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started and download mingw-get.

Then run: mingw-get install gcc g++ mingw32-make mingw32-utils msys-core msys-m4 msys-bison msys-coreutils msys-diffutils msys-make

Don't forget to run msys.bat and from there: /postinstall/pi.sh

Don't forget to add mingw\bin and mingw\msys\1.0\bin to %PATH%.

From http://sourceforge.net/projects/re2c download: re2c-0.13.5-bin.zip
re2c-0.13.5-bin.zip needs to be extracted to mingw/bin

Now, to compile the plugins you need to use the following command:

mingw32-make -f makefile COMMON=../path_to_common_from_far_svn

some plugins might need:

mingw32-make -f makefile COMMON=../path_to_common_from_far_svn/unicode

and some plugins might need:

mingw32-make -f makefile_gcc FARDEV=../path_to_far_svn_root

Some plugins might require the CRT (common/CRT) lib from Far repository, it can be built as follows:

mingw32-make -f makefile_lib_gcc

For x64 builds (not all plugins support it) use MingW64 from http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net (and msys from above) and add DIRBIT=64 to all make commands.
