Testing Orange C with CMake

[ghost]

The project I choose to test is https://github.com/covscript/covscript.

It's C++14, so it will perfectly fine for Orange C.

CMake configuration completed successfully:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=occ -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=occ -GNinja ..

But when I actually build it, the build failed immediately with compilation errors!

And the compile errors are?

And the compile errors are?

I expect the developer to actually test it himself. But in case of you are too lazy:

OK. I forgot to clone the repository with recursive! After all of the submodules are initialized and updated, I have occparse.exe crashed with this dr.mingw report:

@LADSoft Please run some popular static analyzers on your code! Many of them are free! GCC and Clang also offer sanitizers!

[GitMensch]

Thank you, this is something workable.

@iahunq2 thank you for your efforts, it is much appreciated that you took it to the point of showing the compiler crashing. You might understand, for the issue you had before that I was gonna wonder if something in the setup was wrong because it wasn't finding 'include' files and that didn't seem like a reasonable problem to be having, glad you could take it beyond that!

I'm kinda in the middle of a major rework but after that I will look at these projects and clean up the compiles some more.
