Compiling using MingGW-w64 for both 32-bit and 64-bit
1. Installing Minimalist GNU for Windows-w64 (MinGW-w64)
The objective will be to try to use the MingGW-w64 toolchain instead of the standard MingW since it has support for both 32-bit and 64-bit compiling. Note: We are not successful yet, but just writing down our steps as we go along.
Details of the prefixes of files can be found at What to download
MingW-w64 site is http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net
If you are on 64-bit Windows download one of the binary packages from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Automated%20Builds/ with name starting with mingw-w64-1.0-bin_i686-mingw_
If you are on 32-bit Windows download one of the binary packages from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win32/ with name starting with mingw-w32-1.0-bin_i686-mingw_
Extract your respective zip into a folder called C:\mingW-w64
