Hi, Has anyone got precompiled headers working with MinGW/G++? My G++ version is 3.4.5...

I think you should be able to create them just by doing `gcc -c header.h -o header.h.gch`. That said, when it comes to reusing them later, I'm not sure. I assume GCC automatically searches for the .gch file when that header is included, but I could be wrong.

Any reason you're using an old version?
