But on the other hand Microsoft's compiler, linker, headers, debuggers are tested together for the OS releases they support. clang-cl doesn't have that advantage. I guess Google is picking up clang-cl maintenance to make sure it remains compatible with various dependencies MS changes.
- microcolonel 9y agoMicrosoft endorses and works on clang-cl, though I wouldn't say they give it as much attention as their own compiler. As for compatibility, I don't think it's a huge issue, if they never changed the compiler again, it would probably still generate working binaries for the next decade, including PDBs.
