What are the gotchas with using MinGW-w64 5.3.0 posix seh with CLion 2016.1.1?
I prefer to stay with the current versions of the toolchain. So that means with this version of MinGW-w64 I'm using GDB 7.10.1 and MinGW-w64 5.x. I know those aren't supported but they seem to work (so far).
So 3 questions:
- Is anyone on the latest toolchain and if so have you had any issues?
- Has JetBrains done any testing with the latest toolchain and if so what have you found?
- When does JetBrains plan on reving the supported MinGW-w64 version?
Thanks.

Hi!
As you may know we don't support GDB higher then 7.8 version and this is the main reason why we don't support latest MinGW-w64 distributions. So as for compilers, CMake, libraries etc versions we don't have any limitations, our language support based on language standards, if you encounter any issues with parsing/resolve in code etc - feel free to submit bugs or search for existing one and vote for it https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/CPP.
Regarding GDB support, we're analysing upgrade to 7.11 version (CPP-3311), hope we'll be able to support it soon along with latest MinGW-w64.
