Supporting `--sysroot` with plain Clang is alright and good. Supporting libc++ is also good. But both need to automatically find a **normally-installed** MSVC SDK without a GNU-like refactor, and yes, that includes things like `Program Files(x86)`. So in other words it needs to work similar to how `/winsysroot` currently does. Ideally the argument should simply change the priority of the sysroot lookup (which is what `/winsysroot` does anyway) instead of imposing a full GNU-style filesystem reorganisation. To address @Andarwinux's and @YexuanXiao's concerns it could also directly invoke the linker through the driver while simultaneously forwarding the sysroot information. Then we can special-case `-stdlib=libc++` to internally set up the include and library paths to the sysroot if provided, instead of having the user do it manually [as linked above](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/53004#issuecomment-1207167610). Since libc++ is distributed in GNU-style layout, this needs to use the resource directory to find the correct path for the headers and libraries. This is exactly what @zmodem [first asked](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/96417?notification_referrer_id=NT_kwDOADlIYLMxMTIwODI4MjkyMTozNzU0MDgw#issuecomment-2200709561), and I concur. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/96417 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list [email protected] https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
