clang-cl works best when the user runs vcvarsall to set up an environment before running, but even this is not enough on VC 2017 when cross compiling (e.g. using an x64 toolchain to target x86, or vice versa). The reason is that although clang-cl itself will have a valid environment, it will shell out to other tools (such as link.exe) which may not. Generally we solve this through adding the appropriate linker flags, but this is not enough in VC 2017. The cross-linker and the regular linker both link against some common DLLs, but these DLLs live in the binary directory of the native linker. When setting up a cross-compilation environment through vcvarsall, it will add *both* directories to %PATH%, so that when cl shells out to any of the associated tools, those tools will be able to find all of the dependencies that it links against. If you don't do this, link.exe will fail to run because the loader won't be able to find all of the required DLLs that it links against. To solve this we teach the driver how to spawn a process with an explicitly specified environment. Then we modify the PATH before shelling out to subtools and run with the modified PATH.

//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// // C Language Family Front-end //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// Welcome to Clang. This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project. Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different source-level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer. If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant web sites. Here are some pointers: Information on Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/ Building and using Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html Clang Static Analyzer: http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/ Information on the LLVM project: http://llvm.org/ If you have questions or comments about Clang, a great place to discuss them is on the Clang development mailing list: http://lists.llvm.org/mailman/listinfo/cfe-dev If you find a bug in Clang, please file it in the LLVM bug tracker: http://llvm.org/bugs/
