Hello @jospic

• Did you check out the correct branch for Godot 4.0? (git checkout gd-extension)
• Did you correctly update the godot-cpp submodule? (git submodule update --init)
• What is the compiler that you are using?

Hello :) I have never tried cross-compiling the Windows binaries on Linux for Godot 4.0 There's probably some upgrades that have to be done to the SConstruct file.

It works! I've been doing it all along. It by defaults creates a static library and a smaller one at that.

Compilation with MinGW now seems to be correctly supported and the binary obtained using MinGW is now the default binary included in the releases for Windows.

Compilation using MinGW has now been added and the binary compiled with MinGW is now the default binary for Windows platforms in the latest release.
