I’m currently compiling Harbour and I’d like to know which C compiler is considered the best choice for this purpose. Should I use MinGW or Microsoft Visual Studio (MSVC)?

Are there specific advantages, such as performance, compatibility, or ease of setup, that make one preferable over the other when building Harbour on Windows?

Thanks to advance,

Angel Pais
