This reverts one part of commit
9f4dfcb795, with a modified comment added
about the code.
Ideally, this would only be reinstated temporarily - but given the
situation in vcpkg, it looks likely that they would keep passing the
duplicate options for quite some time. The conflicting CRT choice
usually are benign but only would cause warnings about one option
overriding the other, if passing e.g. "/MDd /MT".
However when vcpkg currently sets these options in CMAKE_*_FLAGS_DEBUG,
it passes the redundant option /D_DEBUG; thus the compiler finally ends
up with e.g. "/D_DEBUG /MDd /MT", which has the effect of defining
_DEBUG while using a release mode CRT, which allegedly breaks the build.
There's a PR up for removing this redundant /D_DEBUG option in vcpkg in
https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/pull/34123. With that in place, this
change wouldn't be strictly needed.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
