clang

clang + msvc-wine requires lld-link for link, and some distributions of clang packages don't set an alias for lld-link, so we need to specify the toolchain version explicitly.

xmake run -> call wine on non-windows

#5849

Zcaic · 2024-11-20T14:44:53Z

强，我测试了一下，windows下的PortableBuildTools，能够成功编译了，
但是也有一些小问题，在vscode生成的compile_commands.json似乎有些问题，

这里clangd会显示头文件In included file: 'crtdbg.h' file not foundclang(pp_file_not_found)，我查看了一下compile_command.json文件，里面的头文件似乎只包含了一个，

但是，我查看了PortableBuildTools文件夹下的设置环境变量的脚本devcmd.ps1，

它的头文件目录有好几个。

star-hengxing · 2024-11-21T05:01:25Z

@Zcaic 再试试，应该没问题了

@Zcaic Try again, it should be fine

Zcaic · 2024-11-21T06:27:57Z

👍，刚测试了一下，输出的compile_commands.json 没问题了，clangd能够正确识别，不会有头文件报错的的问题了。👍

Issues-translate-bot · 2024-11-21T06:50:34Z

Bot detected the issue body's language is not English, translate it automatically.

👍, I just tested it, and the output compile_commands.json is no problem. clangd can correctly identify it, and there will be no problem of header file error. 👍
