I have been experimenting with programming a GUI application with Win10 for a couple years now.
It's all put together using Eclipse IDE. I have used Qt 5.5 libraries for all the QtGUI and QtWidgets, etc.
and have used MinGW for the MinGW32-make and g++ and gdb. That was 2016...Everything was fine.
Now it is 2017
I've now changed to Qt 5.8 and it works fine but....
I reinstalled MinGW and there are instructions in installing C:\MinGW\32 and C:\MinGW\64
so I did that
In the 32 branch there is no MinGW32-make.exe, but in the 64 branch there is (??)...and it doesn't work with my project
In the 32 branch there is a gdb.exe debugger but he is : "This GDB was configured as "x86_64-w64-mingw32" " and doesn't work
But in the 64 branch there is a gdb32.exe debugger which works (??) "This GDB was configured as "mingw32"."
When I downloaded this MinGW anew a week ago I specified 'all packages'.
Is this normal, having the 32 bit and 64 bit exe files mixed up like this????
P.S. I went to the MinGW website again and specifically downloaded MinGW32-make.exe inside
make-3.82.90-2-mingw32-cvs-20120902-bin.tar.lzma
and used it....a file from 2012 !!!!
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

I went here :
http://ascend4.org/Setting_up_a_MinGW-w64_build_environment#MinGW-w64
and followed the instructions up to the point before Dependency Walker
Switchable 32- and 64-bit modes interests me.
A lot of this leaves me in a fog
