[CMake] Using Clang + Ninja on Windows?

[Mueller-Roemer, Johannes Sebastian]

It is true that there is no official bundled installer with both, but the official installer works just fine with mingw as long as you pass in the correct target to clang(++)

For example
clang++ --target=x86_64-w64-mingw32 test.cpp

However, it assumes that mingw64 is installed under C:/mingw64 (the default location, it’ll work with a junction point though).

You are mistaken, Clang absolutely also works with MinGW. Or it did at least up to 3.7 (didn’t get around to trying 3.8 yet)


Clang works fine with libstdc++ on Linux and Cygwin, there should be no reason why it shouldn't work with MinGW.

What I should have wrote was that Clang on Windows officially supports only a Visual C++ setup / Visual Studio integration.

I don't think I have seen a package containing clang and libstdc++ from MinGW.

Cheers,
Cristian.
