AFAIK there is no native GCC compiler for Windows. You have to use a pseudo-Linux environment like Cygwin or MinGW.

- dlivingston 3y ago??? Those are MinGW LLVM/Clang, MinGW GCC, and Cygwin GCC, respectively. I don't count either as truly native Windows, like I said earlier -- Cygwin certainly isn't.
- 2h 3y agoYou are really showing your ignorance. Any cygwin packages marked mingw64 do not rely on the cygwin DLL for build time or run time.
