Can't compile with MinGW - libmpc-2.dll is missing

Question

I have installed MinGW in Windows Vista, so I can use gcc but it doesn't work.

When I try to compile a .c file like gcc hello.c -o hello.exe I get an error (translated):

cc1.exe: could not find libmpc-2.dll

How can I fix this?

Answer 1

Copy this file into the directory where your gcc executable can be found (the one named bin). http://www38.zippyshare.com/v/95754574/file.html

The strange thing is that the MinGW installation of mine included this dll correctly.

Answer 2

I had the same problem. Installing the mpc package with mingw-get solved it for me.

1. Open a command line window
2. Go to your MinGW\bin directory: e.g. cd MinGW\bin
3. execute: mingw-get install mpc

Answer 3

I have today same problem in Windows 7. All DLL's was in folder with MinGW. Only copying DLL's in SYSTEM32 folder solved this
