Hello Martell, Great work. Please go ahead and merge new tool to master. I agree to Adrien's comment that this tool should be also buildable by different hosts. So we shouldn't bind its build on Windows-targets only. Thanks, Kai 2015-11-03 22:33 GMT+01:00 Adrien Nader : > Hi, > > On Thu, Oct 29

ping! Kai is there any objections to committing this and getting an option in configure? It's holding me up simplifying the build process for a clang based toolchain :( On Thu, Oct 29, 2015 at 4:47 PM, Martell Malone wrote: > You have a functional Clang/libc++ toolchain? That's awesome! Are all
