I installed CodeLite with MinGW 4.4.0, and now I got a newer version of MinGW 5.6.1
How can I tell CodeLite to use the newer MinGW?
Thanks
BTW: I'm using MS Windows

MinGW5.6.1 is *not* newer the 4.4.0. It will install you an ancient gcc / g++ compiler (3.4.5)coolgle wrote:I installed CodeLite with MinGW 4.4.0, and now I got a newer version of MinGW 5.6.1
I probably chose a bad name for the MinGW by naming it MinGW4.4.0, it is actually the latest MinGW available. The 4.4.0 represents the latest gcc/g++ (v4.4.0)
So, MinGW5.6.1 is not as the same series as codelite's MinGW. The "4.4.0" is just a random number I decided to add (based on the packed g++ version - 4.4.0) to the package

Thanks for reply ! I just turned to CodeLite (and gcc) rencently, so I'm not familiar with gcc
But I still wonder if I can manually setup which bin utils CodeLite should use ?
