-When running Code::Blocks for the first time, a dialog box will appear with a list of auto-detected compilers on your system. If you already have a non-TDM version of mingw greater or equal to version 5.3.0, then select that and you are good to go. If not, OK the dialog box and continue reading.

-===== Which is the the right MinGW? ===== 
- 
-Code::Blocks needs a compiler. It doesn't ship with one in the setup version. But you will need to pick the right MinGW. There are a few variations around: 
- 
-  - [[http://mingw.org|MinGW]] - this is the original vanilla project. 
-  - [[https://mingw-w64.org/doku.php/download/mingw-builds|Mingw-w64]] - this is a separate project that provides both 64-bit and 32-bit versions of MinGW.  
-  - [[http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net|TDM-GCC]] - this is a variation of the original MinGW project and is traditionally packaged with older Codelite and Code::Blocks IDEs 
- 
-Orx no longer supports the TDM versions or vanilla versions of MinGW.  
- 
-**MinGW-w64 is the correct one to use for Orx.** 
- 
-At the time of writing, 8.1.0 is the version to use. But to check on the current version requirements, visit the [[https://github.com/orx/orx#supported-platforms|Orx supported platforms here]].
