[cfe-dev] libclang in c99-to-c89: crash detected during parsing

[i-love-spam]

I don't think there is anything wrong with the tool itself. I'm pretty sure, it's a problem of the libclang, or problem of ms headers that cause it to crash.
The problem happens on the first step before anything was ever done:

    index  = clang_createIndex(1, 1);
    TU     = clang_createTranslationUnitFromSourceFile(index, infile, argc, argv, 0, NULL);

clang_createTranslationUnitFromSourceFile generates that "libclang: crash detected during parsing".

If I use LLVM 3.2 release instead of current SVN, then everything works fine.

I tried to debug the crash and it crashes while parsing ms-style inline asm. Here's the backtrace of the crash: http://pastie.org/7733830

here's the piece of code that crashes it (inside clang\lib\Sema\SemaStmtAsm.cpp):

Sema::ActOnMSAsmStmt(...)
...
  const llvm::Target *TheTarget(llvm::TargetRegistry::lookupTarget(TT, Error));

  OwningPtr<llvm::MCAsmInfo> MAI(TheTarget->createMCAsmInfo(TT));

crash because TheTarget is NULL.
Also, EE is set to this string at this point: "Unable to find target for this triple (no targets are registered)"
