I was going through Programming Erlang’s PDF while waiting for my hard copy. I looked at Appendix B, “Erlang on Microsoft Windows.” It looked like the way to proceed. I got to B.2, “Fetch and Install MinGW.” I clicked on the link provided for MinGW download and got “Page not Found” on the MinGW web site. Where might I find a reliable source for that MinGW program, preferably without acquiring a new worm or virus(it’s a Windows machine, you know)? |

An Erlang Installer for Windows is available from http://erlang.org/download.html The MinGW installer is made available through SourceForge at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=240780&release_id=595197 MSYS is made available through SourceForge at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435 I have had success with Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/), but have never tried MinGW, so I recommend trying Cygwin if this fails. |
