MinGW (Minimalist GNU for Windows), previously known as mingw32, is a native software port of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) and GNU Binutils for use in the development of native Microsoft Windows applications on Windows itself or as cross compiler. MinGW allows developers to create native Microsoft Windows applications. Included in MinGW are extensions to the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime library to support C99 functionality.
For languages other than C, MinGW uses the GNU libraries.
