Simple Fltk application not cross-compiling with MinGW

I am trying to do cross-compiling on Linux to create exe file for 32bit Windows. I use following code: 

i686-w64-mingw32-g++ rnfltk_simplest.cpp -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ -o rnfltk_simplest.exe -lfltk -I/usr/include/

But I get an output with many errors:

Where is the problem and how can it be solved? Thanks for your help.

The problem is in

-I/usr/include/

This path contains headers for libraries configured for and installed in your Linux system. But you want to use headers specific to the Windows libraries. These are installed in the MinGW compiler "system" include directory (most likely /usr/share/mingw-w64/include given that from there all the collisions come).

You need to install Fltk into your MinGW. For example, in openSUSE, this would be the package mingw64-fltk-devel.
