cc @barche I am having some link issues with libcxxwrap-julia
on windows.
This appears to be a mingw
vs visual studio
problem.
It seems that the last release of CxxWrap has binaries for MSVC (cf https://github.com/JuliaInterop/libcxxwrap-julia/releases), but it is not listed in the dictionary https://github.com/JuliaInterop/CxxWrap.jl/blob/master/deps/build.jl#L17.
Maybe it is a time for this CI to test Xtensor.jl with mingw instead of msvc.
Could have a successful build and test with msys2.
Yes, the build.jl is generated automatically by BinaryBuilder, which only runs cross compilers. I do think it would be nice to be able to supply binaries from Appveyor, but I thing BinaryBuilder wants to stick with the cross-compile approach.
I upload the MSVC binaries from the libcxxwrap-julia Appveyor tests since I had this deploy mechanism still from the pre-Julia 1.0 days, and maybe the binaries can be useful someday (thinking of QML.jl, which I anticipate will be hard to cross-compile).
Updating to
and general cleanup of the CI.
