This seems relatively harmless and clang's compiler feature check macros will still work fine.<br>
<br>
If/when the CMake detection problem gets resolved we can re-evaluate defining __clang__ in the drop-in MSVC compatibility mode.<br>
<br>
This feels more progressive to me than making clang-cl.exe look like clang.exe with a -o option. What do you think?</blockquote><div><br></div><div>I agree, if we didn't define __clang__, it would force more users to use the feature detection macros. However, it seems inconsistent with what we do in our default mode, where we define __clang__ and __GNUC__. It also makes it hard to isolate a hack that is intended only for MSVC, like we do here:<br>

</div><div>So, I'd rather keep defining __clang__.</div><div><br></div><div>My immediate use case for adding -o to clang-cl is to get the asan lit test suite passing. They have a bunch of RUN lines like:</div><div><div>
// RUN: %clangxx_asan %s -o %t && not %run %t 2>&1 | FileCheck %s</div></div><div>We want ASan to work with clang-cl. All the relevant ASan enabling options are being exposed there, so it makes sense to run these tests with the clang-cl driver as well as the clang driver. If clang-cl supports -o, then this just works without adding more lit substitutions.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I also think it would be nice, just for regular command line use, to support -o. It doesn't conflict with anything, so I don't see much downside.</div></div></div></div>
