Linking Error with Confluent Kafka Go Package and MSYS2 GCC on Windows 11
Description
I am experiencing a linking error when building a Go application with the confluent-kafka-go package on Windows 11, using MSYS2 GCC. The error occurs during the linking phase, indicating unresolved references to __imp__vsnprintf_s and _setjmp.
$ go build main.go
# command-line-arguments

How to reproduce
Set up a Go environment on Windows 11 64-bit. Install MSYS2 GCC. Set "CGO_ENABLED": "1" Try building a Go application that imports confluent-kafka-go.
Environment:
OS: Windows 11 64-bit Golang version: 1.21.5 GCC version: 13.2.0 Confluent Kafka Go Package version: v2.3.0
What I've Tried:
Updating GCC to the latest version through MSYS2. MSYS2 Guide Reinstalling confluent-kafka-go package with go get -u. Despite these efforts, the issue persists. I've ensured that CGO_ENABLED is set to 1 and that the C compiler is correctly included in the PATH.
Question: Has anyone encountered a similar issue or can provide insights into resolving these linker errors? Any suggestions on additional steps or alternative configurations that might work for this setup?
This is exactly the same issue from here. https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-go/issues/889
@ThadeuFerreira I also faced similar errors. One solution that worked for me was installing gcc from https://jmeubank.github.io/tdm-gcc/articles/2021-05/10.3.0-release. Once installed add the bin and gcc.exe paths to environment variables(either remove old gcc path or add the new paths above the old paths for it to be effective) and restart IDE to update the new variables. After this go run was able to start my application.
