MingW as development environment

latego · 11th December 2006, 07:06 AM

I am trying to start developing plugins and I have found a problem: if I compile the minimal plugin sample with MS Visual Studio 6 everything works all right; if instead I try to use MingW, I create a much smaller dll (6KB vs. 28KB) and AC3D crashes when it tries to load the plugin.

The question is: can I use MingW or have I to use MSVC? If anybody managed to use MingW, how did he managed to do so?

Lots of thanks in advance.
