[llvm-dev] Ninja hangs when I try to build

No worries - yes please, delete the build folder and re-create it, you should be fine.

Objet : RE: [llvm-dev] Ninja hangs when I try to build

I currently build with Ninja, having run cmake as follows:

cmake -G "Ninja" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DLLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX=ON -DSPHINX_WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS:BOOL=OFF -DLLVM_BUILD_DOCS:BOOL=ON -S c:\llvm\llvm-project\llvm

I just added -Thost=x64 to that command and got this:

CMake Error: Error: generator toolset: host=x64 Does not match the toolset used previously:
Either remove the CMakeCache.txt file and CMakeFiles directory or choose a different binary directory.

Shall I just go ahead and follow those instructions?

Forgive my lack of knowledge; this is all new to me.
