MinGW Makefiles

Generates makefiles for use with mingw32-make under a Windows command prompt.

Use this generator under a Windows command prompt with MinGW (Minimalist GNU for Windows) in the PATH and using mingw32-make as the build tool. The generated makefiles use cmd.exe as the shell to launch build rules. They are not compatible with MSYS or a unix shell.

To build under the MSYS shell, use the :generator:MSYS Makefiles generator.
