But well, don't forget we're using an open source project and we're free to review the source code. Let's see _ibpp.h to find out why:
#if (defined(__GNUC__) && defined(IBPP_WINDOWS))As you see, if the compiler is found to be MinGW it #undefs _WIN32. It seems to be because of the compatibility against MinGW 3.0, yet in MinGW-w64 this is the very reason to block the "normal" build.
// UNSETTING flags used above for ibase.h -- Huge conflicts with libstdc++ !
#undef _MSC_VER
#undef _WIN32
#endif
Hope this would help any Firebird users, who want to use it with IBPP under MinGW-w64.
P.S:
