Re: [cdt-dev] Autotools, GCC, GDB, etc on Windows what to use nowadays?

“the intel folk” should really be stated as the Yocto Project folk (even though we are all Intel employees, so technically correct).

Randy Witt is giving a talk at the Embedded Linux Conference about containers, although this is not toolchain specific:

I would also highly recommend MSYS2/MinGW64 over Cygwin or other similar approaches. The simple fact that MSYS2 has a package manager in the terminal beats Cygwin hands down. It also just seems to have more sensible defaults/configuration and “just works” for me.

Cheers.

I guess only Microsoft knows ;-)

the first beta releases from last year demonstrated only a terminal where bash commands were accepted, but apparently they plan to improve the integration.
