[LLVMdev] msbuild and clang

[Russell Wallace]

I'm trying to compile some large programs with clang on Windows (with a
view to compiling to bit code and then running some whole program
optimisations on the bit code).

Take for example the Python 2.7 interpreter:

As is typically the case, the usual build procedure involves running
msbuild which invokes the Microsoft compiler.

The most obvious procedure would then be to substitute clang-cl.exe for
cl.exe and thereby take advantage of msbuild supplying correct flags,
include paths et cetera.

What's the recommended procedure for this - rename clang-cl.exe to cl.exe
and put it earlier in your path?

clang-cl requires some extra flags to get it to generate bit code instead
of object files - what's the recommended way to get that when msbuild
doesn't by default supply such flags?

Are there any existing tutorials or anything describing techniques for this?
