Just for you Neochrome

PC users wishing to build modules or compile source code that imports C/C++ code will need to install the MinGW C/C++ compiler package.

* Download and install MinGW 3.1.0 from www.mingw.org

The current download can be found here:

prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/MinGW-3.1.0-1.exe?download

Note: Do not use a later version of MinGW. Due to ongoing issues with C++, you may have trouble linking with 'prebuilt' modules if you do.

* Edit your PATH environment to include the MinGW/bin directory.

* Create a MINGW environment variable that points to the MinGW root directory.

And that should be it! You should now be able to use the 'build modules' feature in the IDE.

Bye!
