windows cmake use clang-cl with Ninja during configuration process crashed #2257

Open crazyCoder1994 opened 1 year ago

crazyCoder1994 commented 1 year ago

I found a compilation issue, which I checked and found to be ninja related. More specifically: All use cases use the command line environment.
There are command line two enviroment

2) I create a cmake project named cmake-test, below are some details:

//CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5 FATAL_ERROR)
project(cmake-demo LANGUAGES C)
add_executable(hello main.c)
//the command
cmake -G"Visual Studio 17 2022" -B build -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang-cl

The command result

-- The C compiler identification is MSVC 19.34.31937.0
-- Detecting C compiler ABI info
-- Detecting C compiler ABI info - done
-- Check for working C compiler: D:/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/BuildTools/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.34.31933/bin/Hostx64/x64/cl.exe - skipped
-- Detecting C compile features
-- Detecting C compile features - done
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: C:/Users/chenziqi/Desktop/cpp/cmake-study/build

Also works fine

3) But when configure by Ninja, the program crashed //the command

cmake -G"Ninja" -B build -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang-cl -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-v

The command result

-- The C compiler identification is Clang 15.0.7 with MSVC-like command-line

silversurfer98 commented 1 year ago

This issue happens when I pair CMake and ninja for any compiler, somehow meson + ninja works flawlessly, I couldn't find the root cause

acesolucoes commented 1 year ago

I had the same problem. I found the explanation and solution here: https://discourse.cmake.org/t/rc-rc-mt-cmake-mt-notfound/5089/5

To sum up, run vcvarsall.bat before to call the CMake generation: In my case:

%programfiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat

So call your cmake command line generation:

cmake -G "Ninja" -B build3 -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang-cl -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang-cl

It is important to pass both -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang-cl and -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang-cl, because if you don't do that Cmake complains that you are specifying Clang as one compiler ad MSVC as another one, what it is not allowed, giving out an error as result.

Thank you for your words of wisdom @acesolucoes, But I don't have VS 2022 where I'm using ninja, I have tested in 2 different systems where I have VS 2022 and all compilers (Clang, g++, gcc) with ninja and other system with only g++/clang/gcc with ninja. I generated project using VS back end with cl-compiler, cmake generates and compiles them them successfully, but if I try to generate for ninja as back end it fails and generates this error (if I set the CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_WORKS flag off)

But make works with or without the flag enabled, and compiles successfully using g++, since make is slow and always try to compile even when the compiled files are present in the build directory I wanted ninja as my build system and due to this problem I'm falling back to make.

P.S I cant install VS 2022 in my other system, if that could be possible I can use MSbuild rather than Ninja

acesolucoes commented 1 year ago

Well @silversurfer98 , the first thing you must pay attention is gcc on Windows generates executables using a different ABI than MSVC, something more like the ABI that it uses on Linux, meanwhile clang efforts to be ABI compliant with the "natural" compiler for the plataform, that is, it generates an executable and libraries with ABIs compatible with GCC on Linux and compatible with MSVC ABI on Windows. As I have said previously, I sucessfully compiled using clang-cl, but I had to run vcvars.bat. One thing that I tried later is to use clang and clang++ to compile a program. I managed to get it to generate the executable flawlessly. I used the following command-line:

cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER="d:/Program Files/LLVM/bin/clang++.exe" -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER="d:/Program Files/LLVM/bin/clang.exe" -G"Ninja" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -B build .

I had installed MSVC2022, but I am not sure it is a dependency when using this command line. I believe it is not. So, I think that it worths to take the shot using that for your case.

silversurfer98 commented 1 year ago

Again thank you very much on such faster reply @acesolucoes, Unfortunately still clang++ generates same error, P.S I didn't use the VS2022 clang, I used latest MinGW build 12.2.0 I used those tools because it doesn't need to be installed (No Admin rights)

If you can find a work around that I would be very thankful, Make takes minimum 3 mins for even small projects

And I have ran the vcvars64.bat also for testing in my VS2022 setup, it fails

acesolucoes commented 1 year ago

Sorry, I don't have a clue in what to do in order to fix that. Though I have a tip: You can use the verbose command line option:

cmake . -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER="clang" ... --verbose

it will give you a more complete output and might emit a more reasonable message describing the error that causes the compilation to fail.

silversurfer98 commented 1 year ago

Hi @acesolucoes I have tried it with --log-level=VERBOSE, It errors out saying .obj file not found, I couldn't understand why it can't compile

acesolucoes commented 1 year ago

Sorry. Neither I. I presume that some executable is missing, and the compilation pipeline fails due to some crucial step not running as expected. I never tried to compile using MingW clang++. Only now I payed attention and noticed that you uses clang from MingW. A long time ago when I was using mingW on Windows, I was using gcc. Generally MingW is most associated with gcc and I never tried to use MIngW with ninja. I don't know the version neither the limitations around the clang with MingW neither the limitations of ninja with Mingw. I recommend you to download clang for Windows from the official release pages (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases/tag/llvmorg-16.0.0) - 16.00 is the later version since this writing, to put the path for the clang, clang++ and other executables in system path (the env var PATH) and after that to use your command line from a Windows terminal (like Command prompt or Powershell): cmake . -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER="clang" -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER="clang++" -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -G "Ninja" -B .\build\ In my case, instead of just clang or clang++ I passed the absolute path. You can try the same thing. So, in this way, maybe you could use Ninja on Windows with clang and clang++ (not clang-cl) without hassle. Well, my knowledge is dried up with that last hint. I pray for your success, I am rooting for you.

Downchuck commented 1 year ago

With the first comment, MT: command "CMAKE_MT-NOTFOUND -- there is a flag, -DCMAKE_MT to point to an MT executable - presently with clang/llvm, there is a hard coded flag blocking use of llvm-mt, so you'd want to point to an "mt.exe" found from a Microsoft source -- it's likely on your computer if you search for "mt.exe".

When you're using "clang-cl" it's going to pick up an easy path for compiling for Windows, whether you are on Linux or Windows. It gets more complicated if you switch to clang/clang++ as most CMakeLists will go down a different path.

You can use cmake --debug-trycompile to keep your files around to debug them. With your error using clang++ you're seeing The system cannot find the path specified.. It's likely when you debug, you'll see that the "_loc" file it creates does not have the ".exe" suffix appended, and so it is searching for the executable as though it were on a Linux system where there is no file extension.

silversurfer98 commented 1 year ago

@acesolucoes Thank you for your response and suggestions and sorry for late reply. Unfortunately, even after following your advice and downloading clang for Windows from the official release pages, updating the path for the clang, clang++, and other executables in the system path, and passing the absolute path in the command line, the compilation pipeline still fails with errors. I've started using make again in meantime xD

@Downchuck Hi, thank you for your insights, but I've tried your solution ultimately ninja + cmake + windows without any VS is not a good combination

Once again @acesolucoes Thank you very much
