Mingw Compiler For Windows

I suspect that I'm the first person to have ever attempted to build theTigerVNC Windows components on an actual Windows machine using MinGW, soI thought I'd share my experience thus far.I already have a MinGW build environment that I use to buildlibjpeg-turbo, so the first thing I tried was using that environment.My build environment uses the stock MSYS 1.0.11 and MSYS DeveloperToolkit (DTK) 1.0.1 distributions, both installed from the.exe'sprovided by the MinGW project. I don't use the provided installer.exefor MinGW, because it contains an older version of GCC (3.4.5).libjpeg-turbo needs GCC = 4.1 for best performance, so I use an updatedtoolchain based on GCC 4.4.0. The MinGW installer.exe is no longerbeing supported by the MinGW Project. They are supposedly working on anew apt-get-like mechanism, but until they get this online, it isnecessary to install the more recent toolchains by hand.
