Other builds may also work but due to the constantly changing nature of the compiler this cannot be guaranteed. I often had to change compilers while building the libraries and this one is the one that did the job for most of them.
This first support is experimental and considered "advanced". To enable pass -DWITH_MINGW64 during cmake configuration. Also make sure to extract the compiler on C:/MinGW and that MinGW/bin is in your path. To build check out lib/mingw64.
Initially the support is lacking until I get every library compiled correctly. For now you should disable WITH_CYCLES(sorry, I know some people are dying to do benchmarks, but still a few libs to go), WITH_IMAGE_OPENEXR, WITH_OPENCOLLADA, WITH_LIBMV and WITH_CODEC_FFMPEG(links but hangs on startup).
Still the tools are working, the memory limit is increased and due to the experimental nature of the setup, full optimization with SSE2 is available, which makes the build quite fast. Also the compiler and especially, the linker are way faster than regular MinGW.
The wiki docs have also updated. Happy testing!
- define __BIG_ENDIAN__ or __LITTLE_ENDIAN__ with cmake & scons.
- ENDIAN_ORDER is now a define rather than a global short.
- replace checks like this with single ifdef: #if defined(__sgi) || defined (__sparc) || defined (__sparc__) || defined (__PPC__) || defined (__ppc__) || defined (__hppa__) || defined (__BIG_ENDIAN__)
- remove BKE_endian.h which isn't used
blender_add_lib now takes a separate include argument to suppress warnings in system includes (mostly ffmpeg & python).
also only build wm_apple.c on apple+carbon configuration.
- modifier code was using sizeof() without knowing the sizeof the array when clearing the modifier type array.
- use BLI_snprintf rather then sprintf where the size of the string is known.
- particle drawing code kept a reference to stack float values (not a problem at the moment but would crash if accessed later).
- enabling/disabling no longer prints in the terminal unless in debug mode.
- remove 'header' struct from BLI_storage_types.h, from revision 2 and is not used.
- Add GCC property to guardedalloc to warn if the return value from allocation functions isn't used.
