I tried compiling my project using go build and I get this error:
C:\Go\pkg\tool\windows_amd64\link.exe: running gcc failed: exit status 1 /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/5.4.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find -lmingwex /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/5.4.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find -lmingw32 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
I've read that linking files with gcc is a problem in compiling go projects with Windows. But I have installed gcc in my Windows system but the error persists. I can see the error above references gcc as in a Linux sistem (/usr/lib) so how would the compiler detect my gcc installation?
EDIT:
