I'm on Windows 7 64-bit, and I'm compiling with g++ from MinGW-W64.
I'm trying to compile an application that I wrote on a Unix computer. I'm running into problems, however, when I try to link against certain third-party lib<name>.lib files. Specifically, I need to link to ROOT libraries. The linker spits out errors such as

../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -llibGui
I'm completely at a loss as to what to do. I've tried re-installing MinGW-W64 several times in various different configurations, fiddling with my -L and -l tags, renaming the libraries, writing out their full paths explicitely, etc. I can get the thing to yield different errors, but it always gives errors.
I'm compiling with the batch file below.

I actually got things like this a whole bunch of times, and I eventually press Ctrl-C, but anyway . . . this makes me think that the libraries are 32-bit. I think that this might be a problem, but I'm not sure how to fix it. Using the -m32 option on g++ makes it reject all of the standard libraries for C++.
I think that that's about all I have . . . I would be very willing to provide more info if it would be helpful, and a great many thanks in advance for your help on this.
The problem was likely that the libraries were compiled with VC++, so they apparently aren't compatible with GCC. They link fine using Microsoft's link.exe.
From the message dumped from objdump.exe, the lib you need to link with is 32-bit, and the *.o files generated from the gcc (x64) is 64-bit, so is incompatible. I think you need to install MinGW 32-bit version.
