I am trying to use GMP in a C++ program on windows, and I compiled it successfully with Cygwin, and I get an .a file, which is linux's version of a .lib file. Is there a way I can use this with the Visual C++ compiler, or is there a way to compile GMP for windows to produce a .lib file?
I don't know about creating a .lib file, but you may want to look at mpir. MPIR is a fork of GMP that compiles with Visual Studio 2008 and 2010.

I just wanna convert .exe to .asm , so how can I accomplish this ?!
It seems that it is available in Decompiling EXE to ASM
but it is for linux .
objdump is included in gcc, and there are Windows ports for gcc like MinGW-w64. Just download it and use.
Alternatively install Cygwin, which is a Unix subsystem on Windows, and run objdump in it
Another tool is Microsoft DUMPBIN which is included in MS Visual Studio

I have installed MingW GCC 4.8.1 in my system. I am trying to build the LLVM source code( with some extra modification). Cmake 2.8.12 is used to generate the makefiles and visual studio solution files. I am able to build the LLVM source (Rel 3.4.2) with Visual Studio 2010 And is generating both lib and dll file. But with MingW I am not able generate .lib files by simply running Make all.
How to make MingW generate .lib file while building the project ?
Use CMAKE_GNUtoMS. Add -DCMAKE_GNUtoMS=ON to the build command. See this CMake issue. As result, a .lib file will be generated along with the .dll.a file.
I'm trying to use the FFMpeg libraries in a Windows application. I use MingW-w64 to compile FFMpeg with static libraries with architecture once with x86 and once with x86_64.
Currently I'm trying to link the 32bit x86 libraries with my VS2008 application.
The libraries are added to the library path and VS does not complain about being unable to load a .a file.
However I get several uneresolved symbol errors like
ait_rtp_receiver.lib(ait_decoder_lib.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _av_free
I import the FFMpeg header files as extern C and I can see the symbols in the .a without the leading underscore.
What can I do to make the name decoration of Mingw-w64's gcc and of the VS compiler suite compatible?
After spending miserable days trying to get the GCC-Mingw based version of building FFMpeg to work, I reverted to using the Visual Studio or Windows SDK compiler and linker. Using the --toolchain=msvc of the configure script made the build process generate static .a files that are basically .lib files that can be loaded within Visual Studio projects.

and build qt libraries using visual studio command prompt does the output binaries is using mingw or microsoft c++ compiler
The resulting binaries should be used with the visual studio compiler.
This process seems unnecessary since Qt has posted built binaries for the latest versions of Qt built for VS 2010:
http://qt-project.org/downloads
Qt libraries 4.8.3 for Windows (VS 2010, 235 MB)
I'm working with MinGW not Visual Studio to compile openCV libraries to use them in a Qt .pro project.
My problem is my library files in boost folder are all -vc100 while CMake is trying to find -mgw48 files.
My libraries are in this directory:
C:\Program Files\PCL 1.6.0\3rdParty\Boost\lib
and their name are like : boost_date_time-vc100-mt-1_49.lib
but I want them to be like : boost_date_time-mgw48-mt-1_49.lib
so that CMake could recognize them.
Where can I download PCL with -mgw48 libraries?
