I use Cygwin with g++ for compiling my source codes and on some codes I

That means the linking is being done for a GUI application. I guess you
wanted to build a console application, so you should learn what these
options for the linker mean:
-Wl,-subsystem,console
-Wl,-subsystem,windows
There are equivalent options used with the compiler g++, I think they are:
-mconsole
-mwindows
