GitHub action to set up MinGW-w64

Project README

Set up MinGW-w64

Test

This GitHub action sets up MinGW-w64 in your workflow run.

  1. Installs MinGW-w64 on either Ubuntu or Windows.
  2. Fixes the infamous libwinpthread-1.dll static linking issue.

Use it in your workflow like this:

- name: Set up MinGW
  uses: egor-tensin/setup-mingw@v2
  with:
    platform: x64
  • x64 is the default value for the platform parameter and can be omitted. Use x86 if you want to build 32-bit binaries.
  • Set the cygwin parameter to 1 to set up MinGW inside an existing Cygwin installation (see my other action for setting up Cygwin itself).
  • cc and c++ executables are set up, pointing to the *-gcc and *-g++ executables. Disable this by setting the cc parameter to 0.
