How to use standard concurrency support library in simulator (error: 'mutex' in namespace 'std' does not name a type)

[Bubbly_Bee]

Hello,

I am getting this compilation error when running simulator:

error: 'mutex' in namespace 'std' does not name a type

From the informations I had found about this topic, this error is caused by used thread model of MINGW32. MINGW32, which comes together with TouchGFX is configured to WIN32, but just POSIX thread model support std concurrency library.

GCC -V says:

$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.

Thread model: win32

I have tried some workarounds and tips which I had found, but without change (e.g add -std=c++0x option to user_cflags in app.mk, install mingw32-pthreads-w32 package etc.)

So my questions are:

1. Is there some possibility how to get std:mutex working on MINGW32 which comes together with TouchGFX? (without modification of code, which works fine in MSVC and Visual studio)
2. If the first is not possible, is it possible to download TouchGFX with MINGW32 with POSIX? Or is necessary to install it separately

P.S. : I am not very familiar with GCC, MINGW32, etc. So I am sorry if there is some misunderstanding from my side.
