Hi Hossein, *;

after looking at a log of another user having issues, I noticed
another anomaly...

That is unexpected. For the other user on VS 2022 that likely means
the necessary clang components were not installed, but in your case it
finds clang.exe

and clang-cl.exe should be in the same folder as clang.exe - so that's
strange. It would also be strange if VS would change their component
structure in-between releases without noting it on their release
notes, but in any case please double-check that you have clang-cl
installed as part of Visual Studio.
clang-cl.exe is the compatibility layer that makes clang understand
the MSVC-style switches, so if called with just clang the
-showIncludes probably just fails because of an unknown command line
option..

In the original mail you write clang-cl would be available in a
developer prompt, so please determine the locations where it is
installed to in the 18.7.0 version. configure.ac assumes them to be in
$VC_PRODUCT_DIR/Tools/Llvm/bin - but maybe that switched to a
versioned directory...

ciao
Christian
