Detect LLVM installation directory in visual studio on Windows #166

Closed ikey4u closed 1 month ago

ikey4u commented 6 months ago

Hi! As @perqin mentioned here https://github.com/KyleMayes/clang-sys/issues/121, visual studio does install Llvm into directory like

C:\Program Files*\Microsoft Visual Studio\*\VC\Tools\Llvm

And this path is mentioned in visual studio document here:

It links with the Microsoft implementation of the Standard Library. By default, clang-cl.exe is located in %VCINSTALLDIR%\Tools\Llvm\bin\ and %VCINSTALLDIR%\Tools\Llvm\x64\bin.

If you think it's alright, I would be happy to submit a patch and assist with related testing.

I've released v1.8.1 which removed BuildTools from the search path for Visual Studio (see above referenced commit), so it should be better at detecting libclang in this case.
