Building with Clang on Windows?

Post by jpab »

LLVM/Clang has been improving its support for Windows, and has an experimental driver that emulates cl.exe (Microsoft's C++ compiler). Apparently there are builds available to test (so you don't have to build Clang from scratch yourself) and Visual Studio can be configured to build using clang-cl.exe. I suspect that the Visual Studio Express edition doesn't let you plug in a different compiler, but I don't know for sure.

Has anyone tried this yet?

Test builds available from: http://llvm.org/builds/

That's interesting, I do have access to vs2013 pro for work stuff and they have a plugin. Not sure how it'll cope with Pioneer though! :D
