I followed instructions at http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html
I compiled latest trunk of llvm and clang with MSVC 2010. Now I can compile simple programs with Clang but when I tried to compile this program I got a lot of errors.
Here is program:
#include <algorithm>
int main(){ return 0; }
And here are some of errors:
In file included from hello.cpp:1:

Clang tries to use MSVC headers but it doesn't work. Maybe I should use libc++ or libstdc++ instead, but how to do that?
Note I'm not interested in precompiled clang binaries
Yes, clang simply does not support all of Microsoft's extended C++ syntax, and therefore cannot parse Microsoft's C++ headers which use that syntax. Not only that but Clang also doesn't have complete support for Microsoft's C++ ABI, name mangling, etc. I believe Clang on Windows works alright with C, however.
To use a different C++ standard library instead you can make clang ignore the normal header and library directories with, IIRC, -nostdinc++ and -nostdlib++. Then you can tell clang the include and library directories you want to use (using -isystem or -I or whatever). However I'm not sure whether libc++ or libstdc++ work under those circumstances, since they probably depend on things that the Windows C runtime library does not have.
Chandler Carruth mentioned at Going Native 2013 that there are now alpha builds of clang for Windows with Visual Studio integration. Lots of stuff is broken, for example, streams (so good old hello world won't work). However, there is a lot of effort being put into making clang work on Windows, so expect it to get pretty good pretty fast.
Errors were in the header supplied with clang itself. Looks like it can't handle MMX/SSE types properly. Try to add -msse -msse2 switches to the command line.
I'm using libstdc++ and built clang using VS2012Express for desktop. The cmake string was "Visual Studio 11 Win64" and the essential dirs. are specified using -I argument.
My guess you program could work if I used mingw headers for Windows.

I like windows gcc equation.com because it like ran natively just like windows compiler. However :
I will need some dll's that not included on distributed package. if i compiled a windows equation.com gfortran program like using Openblas, it will need libgcc_s_seh-1.dll libgfortran-5.dll libquadmath-0.dll libwinpthread-1.dll.
I could find it on web. But how to make it statically linked, i saw libgcc.a libgfortran.a libquadmath.a libpthread.a so i dont have to copy the dll from other. It is possible ?
For several c source code it need include <sys/resource.h> that not included. It's compatible with resource.h from where. After just copied from others, and recompile.
I got error :
c:\gcc\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include\sys\resource.h:74:29: error: unknown type name 'id_t'; did you mean 'pid_t'?
Is there any forum for this type gcc? Is there any debugger for windows gcc that friendly like VisualStudio Community for Intel Fortran.
Regards.
I am trying to build my project and run an executable in a different machine where I can see thread related issues (if exist). I am using VS2019 and providing -fsanitize=thread -fPIE -pie -g options in the Configuration Properties->Debugging->Command Arguments.
When I run the .exe file, I don't see any generated file which I suppose should have been generated.
Am I providing wrong arguments to the compiler or what is wrong here?
Configuration Properties->Debugging->Command Arguments is a wrong place for compiler options. They should go to Configuration Properties->C/C++->Command Line->Additional options
These options you want to pass are not supported neither by MSVC compiler (Visual C++), nor by clang-cl (Clang under Windows that mimic MSVC)
MSVC does not have ThreadSanitizer at all. (-fsanitize=address is available though)
I installed boost following instructions here: https://phylogeny.uconn.edu/tutorial-v2/part-1-ide-project-v2/setting-up-the-boost-c-library-v2/#
works in Visual Studio, but doesn't work when compiling using mingw g++ in windows cmd.
Editor is vim.
source code is like:
#include <boost/algorithm/string.hpp>
...
compiling like this:
> g++ -o test test.cpp
test.cpp:7:10: fatal error: boost/algorithm/string.hpp: No such file or directory
#include <boost/algorithm/string.hpp>
How can I make my mingw g++ available for boost?
You used the config from the page:
import option ;
using msvc ;
option.set keep-going : false ;
libraries = --with-program_options --with-regex --with-filesystem --with-system ;
using msvc should probably tell you something. It uses the MSVC toolchain. Because these are not interoperable (different C++ runtime libraries, for starters, different ABI likely), you can't link to those libraries.
Header Only
If, like the code you showed, you only require headers, then that is no issue, just add the include path to your compiler flags, as the tutorial also told you:
So either typing command line options directly:
g++ -I C:\boost_1_65_0
Or adding to a variable in your build script(s), like Makefile:
CPPFLAGS+=-I C:\boost_1_65_0
Or CMake:
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(C:\boost_1_65_0)
With Linking
To use pre-built shared libraries, you need to build different versions for mingw. See e.g. these steps: https://gist.github.com/zrsmithson/0b72e0cb58d0cb946fc48b5c88511da8
I installed from that last week (context) and it worked fine. (I also ended up going no-IDE with Vim, though VsCode was ok as well)
Check that it is using the mingw toolchain (e.g. mgw81) which also means that mgw81 shoud be part of the library filenames. Following just that tutorial already gives you this, but your previously existing configs might interfere if you're not careful.
I've recently downloaded CUDA 7 and set it up to work with my project. On Mac, CUDA 7 requires clang to be the host compiler.
Now, I'm using a number of C++11 features. I've enabled these with -std=c++11 passed to nvcc this works. However, if I pass -Xcompiler -std=c++11 to nvcc, I get the following error regardless of if I also passed -std=c++11 by itself. The error is:
"invalid argument '-std=c++11' not allowed with 'C/ObjC'"
It seems like this should work, it certainly does with GCC. Anyone have a workaround. Otherwise, I'll file a bug report with Nvidia.
nvcc -dryrun ... will show what commands nvcc will execute. I don't currently have access to CUDA 7, only 6.5, but mine issues, among other things, two commands that compiles generated C source. This code generated by cudafe and have to be compiled by C compiler, but -Xcompiler adds options for both C and C++ modes.
I guess difference with my gcc situation is that I'm getting a warning while you have an error (this is exactly how gcc and clang differs in that case). For both compilers I don't see any way to suppress it, so I guess you have to fix your .cmake files to omit -Xcompiler options. This options shouldn't be used for language standard, just some very compiler-specific things.
Of course it doesn't work. You are specifying C++ options while using a C or Objective-C compiler. The source files must be C++ or Objective-C++.
According to LLVM's Getting Started (Windows) site:
... Clang can be used to emit bitcode, directly emit object files or even linked executables using Visual Studio’s link.exe.
Why is the use of Link.exe on Windows necessary? And, for that matter, what is used on Mac/Linux? Further down it says:
Compile the program to object code using the LLC code generator:
C:\..> llc -filetype=obj hello.bc
Link to binary using Microsoft link:
C:\..> link hello.obj -defaultlib:libcmt
Why can't LLC perform that last step? LLI seems to work fine so I assume that it interoperates with link.exe somehow under the hood - why can't LLC?
Because no one has written a linker for LLVM.
There is a project to do so (called, unimaginatively lld) but it's not ready yet.
See http://lld.llvm.org for more details.
On the mac, people use Apple's linker, ld.
On Linux, most people use the gnu linker, usually (also) named ld
Try MinGW-W64's ld. I've been using it with llvm's clang instead of VS tools that I used for building clang in the first place.
