How to run the gcc under cygwin?

Set the following properties in your project.properties:

maven.native.include.os=win32
maven.native.compiler.arg.start=-mno-cygwin
maven.native.linker.arg.start=-mno-cygwin -Wl,--add-stdcall-alias

How to run cl on Windows?

Set the following properties in your project.properties:

maven.native.include.os=win32
maven.native.compiler.name=msvc

Optionally, you can set the following property if you don't want the default argument /MD (or /MDd if in debug mode) to be passed to cl. At time of writing, this always gets set by CCTask so even if you pass a different argument with maven.native.compiler.arg.start property, it won't be unset. You will simply end up with 2 arguments...

maven.native.runtime=static

Other arguments for cl can be passed in by setting the following property (with values you *really* want, of course, this is just an example). Multiple values are separated by a space.

maven.native.compiler.arg.start=/GR /GX
