Link issues using LLVM/Clang built to use GCC's standard libraries #85

Closed brechtsanders closed 1 year ago

brechtsanders commented 1 year ago

@lhmouse can you take a look at https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/issues/147 ?

When building LLVM/Clang to use GCC's standard libraries there are unresolved symbols related to MCF when linking.

I don't see clang++ in winlibs packages. Where do they get clang, from winlibs or somewhere elase?

I have explained the reason in https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/issues/147#issuecomment-1536977552.

Maybe I should say that compiling with a compiler of the posix thread model and linking against a standard library of the mcf thread model is not supported, not just about linking statically.

There was an attempt to also add mcf thread model to clang which it was incomplete.

There are winlibs packages with both GCC and LLVM.

Thanks for your explanation. I hope MCF threads make it into LLVM some day, because I do think it's an improvement.
