[aspectc-user] Qt + MSVC + AspectC++. Is it possible to?

[Olaf Spinczyk]

Hello Denis!

The *short* version of the answer is: Don't use ac++ with different
compilers than g++ or clang++ and better work on Linux than on Windows.
The manual has to be corrected. Sorry!

Here is the *long* version: In theory the clang-based C++ front-end of
ac++ should be able to deal with VisualC++ code. However, you need a
proper parser configuration file (ac++ --system-config <file>). In this
file all predefined macros, the standard include paths, and a few other
options have to be specified. For g++ all this is generated
automatically by ag++, but for VisualC++ we don't have such tool, yet.
It would have to be done manually. I haven't tried that since VisualC++
7 (or so).

As the number of requests for VisualC++ compatibility is growing
recently, I plan to look into it, but I can tell you neither when I will
have time nor what the outcome might be.

Best regards,

Olaf
