Using Mingw GCC

The following files are needed:

From http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/

• msysCORE-1.0.11-bin.tar.gz
• bison-2.3-MSYS-1.0.11-1.tar.bz2
• binutils-2.19.1-mingw32-bin.tar.gz
• mingwrt-3.16-mingw32-dev.tar.gz
• mingwrt-3.16-mingw32-dll.tar.gz
• mingw-utils-0.3.tar.gz
• w32api-3.13-mingw32-dev.tar.gz
• mingw32-make-3.81-20080326-3.tar.gz

From http://www.tdragon.net/recentgcc/

• gcc-4.4.1-tdm-2-core.zip
• gcc-4.4.1-tdm-2-g++.zip

From http://sourceforge.net/projects/re2c

• re2c-0.13.5-bin.zip

Extract to msys folder:

• bison-2.3-MSYS-1.0.11-1.tar.bz2
• msysCORE-1.0.11-bin.tar.gz

Extract to msys/bin folder:

• re2c-0.13.5-bin.zip

Extract to mingw folder:

• binutils-2.19.1-mingw32-bin.tar.gz
• mingw32-make-3.81-20080326-3.tar.gz
• mingwrt-3.16-mingw32-dev.tar.gz
• mingwrt-3.16-mingw32-dll.tar.gz
• mingw-utils-0.3.tar.gz
• w32api-3.13-mingw32-dev.tar.gz
• gcc-4.4.1-tdm-2-core.zip
• gcc-4.4.1-tdm-2-g++.zip

Add mingw/bin and msys/bin to PATH.

Create a file called fstab under msys/etc with the following contents: Drive:/path_to/mingw /mingw

Now, to compile the plugins you need to use the following command: mingw32-make -f makefile WIDE=1 COMMON=../path_to_common/from_far_svn

Some plugins might require the CRT (common/CRT) lib from Far repository, it can be built as follows: mingw32-make -f makefile_lib_gcc
