[rust/getting started] windows installation rust gnu environment (toss)

say up front

• First of all, I am an entry-level player in rust. I used to write rust in wsl, and suddenly I want to install rust under windows.
• windows version: windows11 22H2
• original
• change source

Mental journey

• I fell into silence when I saw the tutorial, (official recommendation)
  

• When I opened it Microsoft C++ Build Tools, I was puzzled. This is what made me install vs studio?
  

• I install a rust, how many G environments do you want me to install? Goodbye, farewell! I am a rookie!

• Wait, isn't there a second way?
  

• Ok, although the download is bumpy, at least MSYS2 is installed; let me see what to do next,
  
  after installation, configure the system variables
  

• Then, move! (Stuck in the download, it should be a network problem, after a few interviews, it will be fine again)

  $ curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
  info: downloading installer
  
  
  

• After that, just follow the tutorial, but the waiting process here still depends on the network environment. After installing it three times, the download speed was only 40KB/s once (the mentality exploded)
  

• Well, now is it possible to be happy cargo run? want peach!

  error: linking with `x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc` failed: exit code: 1

  I. . .

• open MSYS2 MINGW64,

  pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
  

• ok now you can have funcargo run

  PS E:\xxx> cargo run --release

Make complaints

• rustThe Windows environment is definitely the most troublesome installation of the language environment I have encountered so far.
