Currently, BuildCC follows an explicit Target-Toolchain method
ex.

// Toolchains
Toolchain_gcc gcc;
Toolchain_arm_gcc arm_gcc;
Toolchain_msvc msvc;

// Specialized targets
ExecutableTarget_gcc gccTarget(gcc);
ExecutanleTarget_gcc armgccTarget(arm_gcc);
ExecutableTarget_msvc msvcTarget(msvc);

// TODO, Generic targets
ExecutableTarget_generic gccGeneric(gcc);
ExecutableTarget_generic armGeneric(arm_gcc);
ExecutableTarget_generic msvcGeneric(msvc);

This keeps only the Toolchain definitions explicit with the low-level details hidden from regular users

  • Update Toolchain with ID (GCC, MSVC, CLANG, etc for toolchain family-specific implementations)
  • Target Triple Architecture for Clang and GCC compilers
  • Create ExecutableTarget_generic with case based overrides
    • Detect host OS
    • Target file extension dependent on Toolchain Id, Target Type and Host OS
    • BuildCC argparse module contain AddCustomToolchain specifications for complete control through the command line
  • Identify other common Toolchain families and document their Executable and Library command line invocations.
    • GCC
    • MSVC
    • Clang
    • MinGW

Future Features

  • C++20 Modules
