MinGW

MinGW or Mingw32 (Minimalist GNU for Windows) is a port of the GNU toolchain to the Win32 platform. Unlike Cygwin it does not require a compatibility layer DLL nor does its license require that applications developed with it are released under the GPL.

MinGW includes a set of Windows header files (w32api) for native Win32 development.
