Hi Han,
I’ve synced and ready to help out on this. “For building MSVC port, it will be better waiting several days until I prepare a draft build manual - current build description is too dirty (/misc /Build_msvc.txt).” Any updates on this? --Joel *From:* Shawn Erickson [mailto:shaw...@gmail.com] *Sent:* Friday, April 22, 2016 8:27 AM *To:* Sangjin Han <tinysun....@gmail.com>; Joel Van Eenwyk < joel.vaneen...@gmail.com> *Cc:* swift-dev <swift-dev@swift.org> *Subject:* Re: [swift-dev] Swift port to Windows : Offering help! Trying to get back on PR1950 today.. fighting to get things building again after a recent update-checkout. -Shawn On Thu, Apr 21, 2016 at 7:18 PM Sangjin Han via swift-dev < swift-dev@swift.org> wrote: Hi Joel, I list some URLs.

Waiting passing PR #1950. [swiftc/msvc] Compiling with MSVC library ( https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/1516) -- Waiting some more opinions or reviews. [runtime] enhanced and refactored recently added Mutex abstraction ( https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/1950) -- This is not about porting, but it enhances portability by removing POSIX pthread. After merging, PR #1918 will be more simpler. IRGen: add support for DLL Storage semantics ( https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/2080) -- I think this is the most important topic for Windows/MSVC porting, but not Cygwin port.

For building MSVC port, it will be better waiting several days until I prepare a draft build manual - current build description is too dirty (/misc/Build_msvc.txt). If you once run the compilers, you can see they are lack compared to Linux or OS X. All of that is only on swift port. For swift-lldb, swift-corelibs-foundation, swift-corelibs-libdispatch, I have not touched at all. Han Sangjin 2016-04-22 8:20 GMT+09:00 Joel Van Eenwyk <joel.vaneen...@gmail.com>: Hi Han, Thanks for the details! Do you have a custom fork or branch with these changes? I'd love to be able to test this out and contribute if you think that could help you out. I can get started on testing what you have now as soon as tomorrow.

There is no well documented information about that. Instead I'll give you some information and several links for you. 1. Cygwin port Cygwin is a POSIX environment on Windows. Porting to Cygwin is relatively easer than Windows native. This is x86_64-unknown-windows-cygwin in llvm target name. Currently, you can build the swift compiler and standard library if you applying my 'informal' hacked patch and build manual. To-be tasks are verifying and sharing the build manual, porting the autolink-extract module, passing failed test code, etc. 2. Window port This is x86_64-pc-windows-msvc in llvm target name, so I call this 'Windows with MSVC library' when confusing with Cygwin - Windows with Cygwin DLL. Porting to Windows is harder than Cygwin. Swift source uses C++11 standard with some POSIX functions, GNU extension functions as well as platform specific codes for OS X or Linux, and the build script for Swift supposed to run on BASH shell. To compile the Swift source, we should use the Clang compiler for clang specific feature. Currently, there is a 'informal' compiler that barely compiles Hello.swift. To-be tasks are the solving problems, dllimport/dllexport problem for DLL, build script problem, plus all tasks of Cygwin's. I'll give you related links in next post.
