Hi hans,
Well, I am currently working on a Windows port of [hid], so I am working with DirectX and MinGW. I haven't gotten it going yet, any tips or docs?
none, apart from google and educated guesses ... what exactly do you need to get to work?
(I cc'ed the list since I think this is of general interest)
I've found so far that finding the right HOWTO has been key, I am
wondering whether you know of one. Good docs for MinGW have been
elusive, and there are quite a few little details that are hard to
track down, like when to use MinGW make, and when to use Cygwin make.
Here's what I have found so far about setting up MinGW for working with

hi hans,
wondering whether you know of one. Good docs for MinGW have been
elusive, and there are quite a few little details
that's right. even the mailing list is not particularly helpful ... What I've done was to google for the error messages g++ was spitting out and patching the directX sdk files accordingly. I kept track of my changes, I could send you the files if you're interested (don't expect too much, though). I doubt that publishing them would be okay :(
with kind regards, thoralf.

you dont need anything from Cygwin for MinGW, that was one of the reasons it was created in the first place...that stuff on the wiki regarding stealing bits here and there from cygwin is misinformation... for some rare thing that isnt in msys or the DTK like PNG/JPeG lib needed by gridflow, you can get pure-win32 ports at gnuwin32.sourceforge.net
i do remmeber sometimes the included make would screw up but if you copied /bin/mingw32-make.exe to /bin/make.exe after installing it worked nicely..

I wonder why the MSYS installer tells you not use use the MinGW make.
There is even a check in the MSYS installer that checks to see that you
are not using the MinGW make. But actually, the MinGW make did work
better for me too.
FYI: I didn't find a "curl" for MSYS/MinGW, but Cygwin's has been
working fine for me.
