Would EnlyzeWinCompatLib work with LLVM-MSVC?

Since LLVM-MSVC technically also uses clang, and according to this issue: aftermathlabs/llvm-msvc#120, using LLVM-MSVC alongside libc++ (instead of the MSVC equivalent) and winpthreads (or more likely something like https://github.com/JHRobotics/pthread9x) should allow for NT 4 compatibility. I was wondering, would this work? And is there any chance that official support is added in EnlyzeWinCompatLib for LLVM-MSVC?

Hi. I opened that issue and almost figured out how to build and use libc++ with clang-cl to target Windows XP. One thing though, the Visual Studio Intellisense will not support it. Also there is no natvis visualization for libc++ to use with Visual Studio Debugger. You might want to write and debug your code with just MSVC/Clang-CL toolset on your system with MSVC STL and then compile the release version with clang-cl + libc++. It requires some hacks though. I'm gonna keep you updated.

@void2012 any news?

I plan to create a (limited) llvm distribution for Windows XP, including compiler, linker and libc++ at some point, though it will likely to happen close to the end of the year
