Hi,
could you please consider adding support for Windows using the MSYS2/clang64 toolchain in support of #713.
The port requires updates to the following third-party libraries:
It also introduces the (libchkstk (is a simple workaround for the
Symbols not found: [ ___chkstk_ms ] build error) and MINGW-packages/mingw-w64-llvm (a package definition extracted, with the necessary patches to compile on the MSYS2 clang64 toolchain), under the third-party libraries, with their original snapshots from source starting at:#714
The port is fully functional except for exception stack unwinding from the JIT layer, which is not yet supported by LLVM (tracked in ikappaki#2). As a result, several tests that throw exceptions from JIT code have been explicitly disabled:
I will update the documentation once the review process is complete. We should also consider how to approach binary packaging, since there is currently no registry available to host
mingw-w64-jankalpha binaries.I also plan to update this description with a bullet point summary of the changes.
Thanks
