Issue ID: 20387
Summary: pipelink.exe ignores preferred linker
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: Windows
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1
Component: visuald
Assignee: [email protected]

I'm using the new LLVM platfrom toolset in visual studio 2019 which works fine
until I do something like "-flto" which is not compatible with link.exe. My
"LinkToolExe" property gets correctly set to lld-link.exe but at the last
moment VisualD overrides it which pipelink.exe which then calls link.exe.
I think it makes more sense for pipelink.exe to delegate to the whatever is in
"LinkToolExe" before VisualD takes over.
