The following issue has been SUBMITTED. ====================================================================== http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=13035 ====================================================================== Reported By: rubenvb Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: CMake Issue ID: 13035 Category: CMake Reproducibility: always Severity: major Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2012-03-10 07:57 EST Last Modified: 2012-03-10 07:57 EST ====================================================================== Summary: Setting CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ on Windows links to .lib files even though clang is built with/for MinGW(-w64) Description: When CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER is equal to clang++, CMake adds link flags to link with libraries suffixed with ".lib", which does not work when the Clang used is built for MinGW (which uses libbla.a instead of bla.lib)
Steps to Reproduce: Configuring the LLVM/clang build tree with cmake ../../Source/LLVM -G"MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ This runs fine and detects all the GNU binutils (ls, as, ar...), and uses clang++ on PATH for the configure step. When I run mingw32-make afterwards, on the first linked binary, it tries to link with MSVC libraries: m:/development/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.6.4/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -limagehlp.lib m:/development/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.6.4/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lpsapi.lib m:/development/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.6.4/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -limagehlp.lib m:/development/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.6.4/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lpsapi.lib Additional Information: These has to be a way to use Clang's triplet information (output when doing "clang --version") to detect *-*-mingw* (MinGW(-w64)) vs *-*-win32 (MSVC). Or just dump the .lib extension (which ought to work for MSVC too. ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2012-03-10 07:57 rubenvb New Issue ====================================================================== -- Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cmake-developers
