[jira] [Commented] (THRIFT-4081) Provide a MinGW 64-bit Appveyor CI build for better pull request validation

James E. King, III commented on THRIFT-4081:
--------------------------------------------

I got a MinGW build running in my local appveyor sandbox... I've retooled most of the appveyor scripts at this point so I am going to complete it with a matrix build of MSVC and MinGW, and will submit a PR for production.

> We currently build in Visual Studio 2015 on Appveyor.  We do not use the Windows CI environment to verify that MinGW still builds successfully (there is a 32-bit job on linux, #16, which runs on every pull request).  I would recommend that we add a CI build job to Appveyor and/or extend the existing job to build with the latest MinGW 64-bit environment which includes gcc-6.3.0; we could perhaps remove Travis job #16 which is using 32-bit mingw on linux as a result?
