How to solve -------undefined reference to `__chkstk_ms'-------on mingw

Question

I have just install gcc and g++ on mingw. I wrote a very simple \"hello world\" program to test if the g++ compiler worked. Code:

#include 
u         


        

Answer 1

The orig problem seems solved regarding linking against old libs, but I have opposite case. I need to work with older GCC 3.4 version, so I installed gcc-v3-core package. Then orig errors immediately appear when linking a trivial source. I found out that MinGW GCC 3.4 cannot work with mingwrt > 3.20 and the problem is that gcc-v3-core contains incorrect mingwrt spec, allowing newest vesions.

The solution is simple:

mingw-get upgrade "mingwrt=3.20.*"

!Update! Actually with mingwrt-3.20 linker reports same errors for C++ code:

g++ hello.cpp

BAM!

Solution 2:

mingw-get upgrade "mingwrt=3.18.*"

the last one that seems to work with gcc-v3-g++.
