[cfe-dev] Extracting Clang AST on Windows from Visual Studio solution

Hello Daniel,

Thank you for your reply. I think ClangVSx project (
https://github.com/ishani/ClangVSx) does exactly what you wrote.

I was just curious if you know if it is possible to substitute a wrapper
around clang as c compiler in VS somehow?

Such approach works for me with makefile build setup. For example, this
works:
make CC=path/to/clang_wrapper.bat

Where clang_wrapper.bat first runs clang with -ast-dump option and
redirects it to a text file, and then runs clang normally to compile source
code.

Thank you.
Best Regards,
Evgeny

Best Regards,
Evgeny Karataev
